Fichajes website confirmed that Napoli club is placing Ademola Lookman, the Atalanta winger and Nigerian international player, at the top of its priorities in the current winter transfer market. The Italian club considers the Lookman deal to be a qualitative addition to the team, as he can make an immediate difference in the final third of the pitch.

Napoli seeks to finalize the contract with Lookman during this January, but the club faces a financial challenge due to a strict policy that prevents spending more than the revenues. Therefore, the management has set a clear plan to provide the necessary funds, including selling specific players to free up the budget for the deal.

Napoli targets selling Lorenzo Lucca, whose estimated price is around 25 million euros, and Noah Lang, who is valued at the same amount. It may require selling one or both if the budget needed to sign Lookman is higher than that.

Napoli sees Lookman not just as a future signing, but as a ready addition to impact the team's performance from day one, especially with the need to strengthen the attacking line in the Italian league and European competitions.

While Napoli focuses on executing its plan quickly, clubs like Atletico Madrid and Galatasaray are closely monitoring the situation. However, the Italian team aims to finalize the deal before these clubs enter negotiations in earnest, to ensure the winter signing is successfully secured.
