The forward’s contract at the Gewiss Stadium expires in June 2026, but the Serie A side have the option to extend him for another campaign, taking his salary to €2 million per season.

Friday’s print edition of Corriere dello Sport reports that any interested club will have to pay at least €50m for the 27-year-old striker who moved to Bergamo from RB Leipzig for just €9.3m in the summer 2022.

Atalanta are financially healthy, so the club are not willing to sell Lookman in the January transfer window, but may listen to offers in the summer.
