Barcelona starts first contact with the star agent of Serie A

Since the middle of last season, it had become clear that Barcelona Football Director Deco was looking for a solution to the left arm of the attack.

Although its good presentations have temporarily softened this need, the long - term position of the Blaugrans seems to still be that of strengthening it.

Barcelona has long been associated with the names of Louis Díaz and Nico Williams, but the voices have recently calmed due to problems with the wage limit.

However, there is still an opportunity for the club to have investment space this summer, depending on the performance of the 100m-euro deal by renting VIP venues at the stadium.

According to the “Caught Offside”, Barcelona has contacted the agent of the star Atlanta, Ademiola Lookman.

After a clash with coach Gian Piero Gasperini, Lookman is expected to leave during the summer mets, but his 6065m-euro award has distanced Barcelona from the 27-year-old.

Even “Diario AS” reports that Atletico Madrid is looking for a player on the left arm, but they too have been hampered by financial demands.

However, the Nigerian star is not without offers. “Caught Offside” adds that Manchester United, Livepool, Chelsea and Arsenal have expressed interest in Lookman, as did Juventus in Italy.

For “The Old Lady”, however, the award also presents a significant obstacle this summer.

Lookman was in extraordinary shape last season, when he marked a show in the final of the League of Europe to bring the Atlanta trophy.

This season, despite disagreements with Gasperini, he scored 18 goals and awarded seven assets in 37 matches.

A big advantage for interested teams is the fact that he can play at the center of the attack if necessary, which makes it more attractive both to Atletico and Barcelona if his price falls.
