Ademola Lookman is on the verge of completing a high-profile move to Atletico Madrid after all parties reached a full agreement on a 40 million transfer from Atalanta. The deal, confirmed today, includes a 35 million fixed fee plus 5 million in add-ons, with the Nigerian forward already agreeing to personal terms on a long-term contract.
SoftFootball understands that Atletico moved decisively after Lookman opted for La Liga , accelerating talks that had been progressing steadily in recent days.
The Spanish side's breakthrough came after Fenerbahce dropped out of the race due to disagreements over payment structure and financial guarantees, despite having previously held a verbal agreement. Atletico matched Atalanta's valuation with a cleaner financial proposal, allowing them to move ahead quickly and secure the player's commitment.
