Atletico Madrid Push to Sign Ademola Lookman from Atalanta
Atletico Madrid have entered the race to sign Ademola Lookman, adding to the growing list of clubs eyeing the Atalanta winger.
Despite having two years left on his current deal, Lookman is likely to leave the Serie A side this summer. Atalanta are reportedly open to selling the Nigerian forward, but they’ve set his price tag at around €60 million. Reports from Spain suggest Atletico have already begun talks with Lookman’s camp. However, Diego Simeone’s side is hoping to negotiate a lower fee.
The 27-year-old has been in fine form this season, scoring 18 goals and providing seven assists in 37 appearances for the Italian club. Lookman made the switch to Atalanta from German side RB Leipzig back in 2022 and has since grown into one of their key players.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
