Serie A: Atalanta stand firm as Arsenal, Juventus chase Lookman's signature

Italian Serie A side Atalanta are reportedly unwilling to reduce their asking price for Nigeria's Ademola Lookman.

According to Italian publication Tuttomercato, the Bergamo-based club will only sell the reigning African Footballer of the Year for a fee in the region of €50 million to €60 million.

The 27-year-old has been linked with a move away from Atalanta to some of the top clubs in Europe this summer.

Recent reports indicate that Premier League runners-up Arsenal have rekindled their interest in the former Leicester City man.

Italian champions Napoli and Juventus are also among the clubs that have expressed strong interest in signing the Super Eagles star.

Lookman netted 20 goals and provided seven assists in 40 appearances across all competitions for La Dea last season.
