Atletico Madrid battle Arsenal for Lookman deal

Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman has already been approached by Arsenal, but Atletico Madrid are in the running too after signing Matteo Ruggeri.

The Nigeria international was named African Player of the Year thanks to his performances for La Dea, including a hat-trick in the Europa League Final victory over Bayer Leverkusen.

He could well be moving on this summer and the most likely option was Arsenal, who revived their negotiations and were not scared off by the €50m asking price.
