Liverpool are expected to spend heavily this summer, with the club wanting to improve five positions in the off-season, including Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz, who have both been linked with moves away from Anfield.

As a result, Lookman has surfaced as a target for Liverpool, with the Merseyside club evidently impressed by the dynamic attacker’s play over the last two seasons, including a hat-trick in last year’s Europa League final. Liverpool’s updated stance on signing Lookman has finally been revealed ahead of the summer transfer window.

Liverpool is still keeping an eye on Ademola Lookman alongside Arsenal.

According to CaughtOffside, Liverpool is still monitoring Lookman’s situation at Atalanta, with the Serie A club wanting €65 million (£55 million) for the in-demand former Everton attacker to leave Bergamo in the summer. Lookman’s numbers this season have been remarkable, with a total of 25 goals and assists in all competitions, following his breakout performance in last year’s Europa League final, where the striker made history in Dublin.

And, for Liverpool, Lookman’s profile is exactly what Arne Slot is looking for in a forward, with the striker capable of playing across the entire attacking front line and providing several opportunities to inflict damage to other sides.
