Liverpool are reportedly plotting a summer move for in-form Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman, with the Italian side valuing the Nigerian international at 60 million, Soccernet.ng reports .

According to Corriere dello Sport via CaughtOffside , the Reds are monitoring Lookman's progress closely following his impressive season in Serie A.

However, they are not alone in the race, with Juventus also interested in the 27-year-old.

Should Liverpool meet the 60 million valuation, Lookman would become Nigeria's second most expensive player in history - behind only Victor Osimhen, whose 80 million switch from Lille to Napoli in 2020 remains the country's record transfer fee.

Currently, the second-highest fee paid for a Nigerian player is Alex Iwobi's 30 million move from Arsenal to Everton in 2019. Iwobi also features again in fourth place after his 25 million transfer to Fulham last summer.
