Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman is reportedly interested in a move to Arsenal this summer amid interest from several clubs in Europe.

Reports indicate that the reigning African Footballer of the Year is keen on returning to the Premier League after unsuccessful spells with Fulham, Everton and Leicester City.

CaughtOffside reports that the Gunners have opened talks with Atalanta over a possible move for Lookman this summer.

The Bergamo-based club is demanding a fee in the region of £38–42m for the Super Eagles winger.

The Gunners have also reportedly held concrete talks with Lookman as part of Mikel Arteta's plans to resolve their struggles in the final third.

Serie A giants Juventus and Napoli have also expressed keen interest in securing Lookman's signature this summer.

Lookman had a remarkable campaign with Gian Piero Gasperini's side last season.

The 27-year-old netted 20 goals and provided seven assists in 40 appearances across all competitions for La Dea.
