There are conflicts internally at Atletico Madrid regarding Ademola Lookman, according to renowned Italian journalist Matteo Moretto.
Moretto said that the club is unsure whether to sign the Nigerian.
Some within the club are pushing for the deal, while others are unconvinced about the player’s ability to make a positive impact at Atletico Madrid.
Talks are currently ongoing internally, and the outcome remains unknown.
Atletico Madrid have been very active in the transfer market this window. The club has spent a total of €149 million.
The Rojiblancos have signed eight players, including :
Alex Baena – Villarreal (€42.00m), Dávid Hancko – Feyenoord (€26.00m),Johnny Cardoso – Real Betis (€24.00m),Thiago Almada – Botafogo (€21.00m),Matteo Ruggeri – Atalanta BC (€17.00m), Marc Pubill – UD Almería (€16.00m), Juan Musso – Atalanta BC (€3.00m),Clément Lenglet – Barcelona (free transfer).
The Spanish side is showing no signs of slowing down, as they remain keen on bringing in more players. Atletico are currently in talks with Stuttgart for Enzo Millot.
Given Atletico Madrid’s spending power this transfer window, there is still a possibility the club’s board could reach a consensus to sign Lookman.
