Here is why Ademola Lookman is having what many would rather categorised as a ‘quiet’ June 2025 transfer window.
Following initial reports of a June 2025 transfer window departure from the former UEFA Europa League champions Atalanta for CAF African Player of the Year Ademola Lookman, things have been relatively quiet, with many asking questions as to why this is the case.
Ademola Lookman has been viewed as one of the most sought-after African players by top European sides, given his formidable form during Atalanta’s impressive 2023/2024 campaign, where they were crowned UEFA Europa League champions.
However, talks of a possible departure from the Serie A side intensified in the 2024/2025 season following conflicts that were revealed to be fueled by the club’s then-head coach, Gian Piero Gasperini.
According to Fabrizio Romano, a confirmed Ademola Lookman exit in the summer transfer window was revealed to be in the works since May 2025, but given how much silence has surrounded the Super Eagles of Nigeria star player, we can’t help but feel that this is no longer the case as things stand.
Latest Ademola Lookman transfer news
The June 2025 transfer window has been extremely quiet for Ademola Lookman. It cannot be helped but to second-guess the possibility of him leaving Atalanta this summer as things stand, and the reason for this might be attributed to recent changes in the club’s leadership.
Following the departure of Gian Piero Gasperini at the end of the 2024/2025 season, many cannot help but feel that this has been a key factor affecting Ademola Lookman’s current position at the club, with transfer updates hinting at a possible stay at the club for another season (2025/2026).
Mola Lookman has built a precious relationship with Atalanta and as such it is not strange to him possibly considering the option of remaining at the club for a while longer.
