Former AC Milan manager Fabio Capello has cautioned Atalanta against selling Ademola Lookman, warning that it could jeopardize the team’s chances of winning trophies this season.
Lookman, who scored a hat-trick in Atalanta’s 3-0 UEFA Europa League final victory over Bayer Leverkusen in May, has been named the club’s best player for the past two seasons. The Nigerian winger has recently been linked with moves to Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal.
Lookman missed Atalanta’s Serie A match against Lecce after boycotting training due to PSG’s interest but returned to training on Thursday and is expected to play in their upcoming match against Torino.

Capello advised Atalanta to retain Lookman and other key players, noting, “If Koopmeiners and Lookman leave, especially after injuries to Scamacca and Scalvini, it would be challenging for Gasperini.”
