Arsenal Still Keen On Signing Nigerian Forward And Europa League Champion From Atalanta

The very talented and versatile Nigerian left winger who is currently a Europa League champion with his current team Atalanta.

Ademola Lookman is no doubt a transfer target for a club like Arsenal, if not for any other thing, then singularly for his man of the match display in the Europa League final against Bayern Leverkusen.

Bayern Leverkusen is a team that prior to the Europa League finals against Atalanta had gone unbeaten in the Bundes Liga and also went ahead to lift the league cup ahead of dominant and usual suspect Bayern Munich who have always been the regular winners for years in a row.

With talented manager Xabi Alonso at the helm of affairs, Leverkusen went into the Europa League finals as favourites to win the cup, I mean, what would you be expecting from a team that went a whole season unbeaten without losing a single match ?.

But it is no longer news but history that that the unbeatable and unbeaten Bayern Leverkusen team was finally humbled and beaten to the prestigious Europa League cup by Atalanta, and Ademola Lookman being the man of the match of the game also went home with the match ball as he grabbed three wonderful goals against Leverkusen.

Ademola Lookman has proved himself to be a big game player and is able to carry a team and deliver when necessary, which is no surprise why the gunners are gunning for his signature going into the new premier league season probably hoping he could replicate for Arsenal with a fantastic season just like he had last season with Atalanta.

With the transfer window drawing very close to it’s end, i believe we will have to wait and see if Arsenal will be able to pull in Ademola Lookman into the Emirates stadium ahead of other potential clubs he could also join this season, like the likes of PSG who have been said to have had a verbal agreement with Lookman already.
