Premier League outfit Aston Villa are reportedly eyeing a move for reigning African Footballer of the Year Ademola Lookman.

According to Caught Offside, Villa are counting on their Champions League campaign to convince the 27-year-old to consider a move to Villa Park next season.

Lookman is expected to leave Atalanta next season after three impressive years at the Gewiss Stadium.

The Super Eagles winger has attracted interest from clubs in the Premier League, La Liga, and Ligue 1 following his impressive campaign with La Dea last season, guiding Atalanta to their first-ever Europa League title.

Atalanta is expected to demand around €60m for the Nigerian international.

Lookman has registered 18 goals and seven assists in 34 competitive appearances across all competitions.
