Ademola Lookman to West Ham: O'Rourke shares major update today

West Ham will find it difficult to compete for the signature of Atalanta star Ademola Lookman, sources have told Football Insider.

Reports have suggested that the Irons are ready to swoop for the Nigeria international in the January transfer window.

However, sources say there will be “huge interest” from across Europe in the 27-year-old ex-Everton star.

It is believed Paris Saint-Germain will be the frontrunner for the forward if he becomes available in the coming months.

Additionally, Lookman plays in the same area of the pitch as West Ham’s big-money summer signings Crysencio Summerville and Luis Guilherme.

The London-born has raised his stock with his displays for Atalanta since joining from RB Leipzig in 2022.

He finished 17th in the Ballon d’Or rankings this year after leading the Italian side to a Europa League title last term.

Paris Saint-Germain could pip West Ham to Lookman deal

Lookman has already hit five goals and contributed five assists in 10 games across all competitions this term.

The forward, who is under contract until June 2026, hit 17 goals and notched 10 assists in 45 appearances last season.

West Ham

West Ham are unlikely to have serious funds to spend in the January window after their lavish spending in the off-season.

Julen Lopetegui’s side have started slowly and sit 13th in the Premier League after nine games.
