Former Atalanta forward German Denis has encouraged Napoli to pursue a move for Super Eagles winger Ademola Lookman.
Lookman has been linked with a potential transfer following another strong campaign in Italy, with his performances attracting attention from clubs seeking additional attacking quality.
Denis believes the Nigerian would be an excellent addition to Napoli and could provide the champions with greater depth and creativity in attack.
Softfootball reports that Lookman’s reputation has grown significantly since joining Atalanta, where he has developed into one of the club’s most influential attacking players.
The winger is capable of operating from either flank and can also move centrally, giving coaches tactical flexibility. His pace, dribbling ability and finishing have made him a difficult opponent for defenders.
Napoli are expected to assess their squad carefully as they prepare for another demanding season, particularly with European football adding to their schedule.
A move to the Serie A champions would represent another major step for Lookman, who has already experienced football in England, Germany and Italy.
The Nigerian has also become an important player for the Super Eagles, increasing his profile among supporters at home and abroad.
Any transfer would depend on negotiations between the clubs and the player’s situation.
For now, Denis’ recommendation adds to speculation over Lookman’s future and the possibility of the Nigerian remaining in Serie A.
