Nigerian outlet Soccernet reports that PSG have now beamed their searchlight on impressive Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman.

The 26-year-old caught the eye of several top clubs following his performance in the Europa League final when he netted a hat-trick.

It was gathered that PSG have reached out to Lookman's representatives, who have, in turn, detailed that the Nigerian international is interested in moving to France.

The former RB Leipzig and Everton star was impressive for the Super Eagles at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations where Nigeria finished as runners-up.

He was, however, far from his best as Atalanta lost their UEFA Super Cup clash against Real Madrid in midweek.
