Napoli manager Antonio Conte wants the club to buy Nigerian striker Ademola Lookman. The Italian coach chose Lookman to replace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia after the Georgian left for Paris Saint-Germain. Conte believes the 27-year-old fits perfectly into his tactical plans. Gazetta dello Sport says Napoli prepared a 50 million euro bid. The former Chelsea coach demands quick action from club officials.
Atalanta wants 60 million euros for their star forward. Multiple European giants compete for Lookman's signature this summer. Liverpool, Arsenal and Barcelona contacted the player's representatives. Last season Lookman scored 22 goals across 46 matches for Atalanta. His speed and finishing skills impressed scouts from top clubs.
The Nigerian international became essential to Atalanta's attack formation. Conte sees similar qualities that made Kvaratskhelia successful at Napoli. Lookman can play across multiple positions behind the striker. The transfer fee difference may complicate negotiations between both clubs. Serie A champions need attacking depth for their European competitions.
