Sky Sports: Man Utd make contact to sign “phenomenal” star for Amorim who can leave for just £41m

Manchester United have made contact with the entourage of Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman ahead of a potential move, according to Sky Sports.

Adding another attacking option could be one of United’s priorities over the next couple of transfer windows. Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford were both left out of the squad to face Manchester City at the weekend, casting doubts over their future at Old Trafford.

Mason Mount was deployed in a role just behind the striker alongside Amad Diallo against City, but the England international was substituted in the first half due to injury. Ruben Amorim is unable to rely on the former Chelsea man, so adding another player in attack could be on United’s wish list.

According to a report from Sky Sports, Manchester United have made contact with the entourage of Atalanta forward Lookman, who could cost in the region of €50m (£41m). The article claims that Atalanta will be unable to retain the services of Lookman and are willing to offload the Nigerian winger if they receive a suitable offer. It’s understood that Liverpool and Chelsea have also initiated contact, while Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain are interested in the forward.
