Lookman Galatasaray transfer reports say the Super Eagles winger is open to joining Galatasaray if Atlético Madrid agree a fee

Super Eagles winger Ademola Lookman is reportedly open to a potential move to Turkish champions Galatasaray, but only if the club can reach an agreement with Atlético Madrid over a transfer fee, according to reports from Turkey.

The 27-year-old forward, who remains under contract with the Spanish club until 2030, is said to have responded positively to Galatasaray’s interest ahead of the 2026/27 season.

The reported development comes as the Istanbul giants look to strengthen their attacking options following a dominant domestic campaign that saw them secure a fourth consecutive Süper Lig title and a record-extending 26th league crown.

Turkish media outlets claim Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has played an informal role in encouraging Lookman’s potential switch, with reports suggesting the pair have discussed the possibility of linking up in Istanbul.

Osimhen, who himself has been linked with a permanent move to Galatasaray, is said to have spoken with Lookman about the club’s ambitions and long-term project.

However, Lookman has reportedly made it clear that any transfer would depend entirely on negotiations between Galatasaray and Atlético Madrid, with the winger instructing the Turkish side to first secure an agreement with his current club.

That position has been interpreted as a cautious but encouraging signal for Galatasaray, who are now weighing up the financial demands of a deal reportedly valued at around €40 million.

The Lookman Galatasaray Transfer speculation has intensified in recent weeks, with the winger’s long-term future at Atlético Madrid becoming a subject of increasing attention despite his relatively recent arrival in Spain.

Rival Turkish club Fenerbahçe are also believed to be monitoring the situation closely, potentially setting the stage for a competitive battle for the Nigerian international’s signature.

Reports further suggest that Atlético Madrid have shown interest in Osimhen, adding another layer of intrigue to the evolving transfer landscape involving Nigeria’s two leading forwards.
