Report: Barcelona contact Ademola Lookman agent to discuss summer transfer

The 28-year-old forward has been in the market since last summer-the aftermath of his incredible high, in which he led La Dea to their first-ever European trophy.

He failed to secure a transfer and seemed to have settled back into the side until a recent falling out with Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini after the Italian publicly blamed him for their Champions League exit to Club Brugge.
Barcelona's interest
The reports of Lookman leaving Bergamo after that incident are as strong as ever, with the likes of Juventus, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain having been linked with the Nigerian.

Barcelona were also keen in the summer but were put off by the valuation. However, left-wing still remains a position they want to fix, and while they have interest in Luis Diaz, Nico Williams and Rafael Leao, Lookman's name remains on their shortlist.

According to Caught Offside, they recently contacted the Nigerian's representatives to make inquiries, as they are weighing options permissible under LALIGA financial restrictions.

Barcelona hope to make money by finally getting the money for leasing Camp Nou VIP seats, as well as player sales. They also want to sign a midfielder and a right-back, and both positions are reportedly deemed a higher priority than the left wing.
