BREAKING: PSG Lock Horns With Manchester United Over Ademola Lookman—–Manchester United have submitted a bid in the region of £84 million for Atalanta winger Ademola Lookman, although they face competition from Paris Saint-Germain for his signature, according to Fichajes.
Lookman has enjoyed an exceptional start to the 2024/25 season, scoring six goals and registering four assists in just eight Serie A starts. This is following an outstanding campaign last term, which saw him net a hat-trick in the Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen in May, leading La Dea to their first piece of continental silverware and him being labelled as “unstoppable”.
Such productivity has inevitably sparked interest from a host of top clubs, with United reportedly willing to offer £50 million for the Nigerian back in the summer. This deal ultimately didn’t materialise, but Fichajes suggest that the Red Devils have maintained their interest, and have made a fresh blockbuster offer, in an attempt to secure new manager Ruben Amorim his first marquee addition at Old Trafford.

Both United and PSG have made offers close to €100 million (£84 million). It’s understood that Atalanta are willing to part ways with their talisman for this sum, recognising that a sale of such magnitude would allow them to significantly reinvest in their squad, and remain as competitors near the top of Serie A.
United are looking to rebuild their squad under Amorim, and believe that Lookman would perfectly fit into their long-term plans.
