Ademola Lookman is reportedly the subject of advanced talks between Aston Villa and Atalanta, who are negotiating terms ahead of a possible transfer. The forward has long been on the radar of Aston Villa, who see him as the perfect addition to their squad as they look to strengthen a key area of the pitch. Progress on talks has been made, though a final agreement is not yet in place and other clubs are said to be weighing-up whether to join the race for his signature. While Fenerbahce, Galatasaray and Bayern Munich have shown interest, Aston Villa currently lead the race - though the situation could evolve if a deal drags on. In season 25/26, Aston Villa are only scoring 0.86 goals per game (6 in 7), below the Premier League average. Ademola Lookman would be brought in to give them more bite in the final third. Alongside this, Atalanta are said to be exploring Robin Gosens, Tyrell Malacia and Ian Maatsen with Aston Villa likewise connected to Nicolas Pepe, Hector Fort and Leandro Trossard.
