Nigerian international Ademola Lookman has reached a definitive conclusion about his career path, with multiple sources confirming his imminent departure from Atalanta BC. 

The 26-year-old winger, who became a fan favorite in Bergamo, is reportedly preparing for a summer exit. Italian sports outlet Tuttomercatoweb.com revealed Sunday that Lookman's tenure with La Dea will conclude when the season ends. 

Their translated report states unequivocally: “Ademola Lookman has already made the most important decision about his future. He will no longer be at Atalanta.”

This development follows last summer's aborted transfer attempt, with club and player now understood to have reached a mutual understanding about the separation. Sources indicate a gentleman's agreement has been established to facilitate a smooth transition.

While the Nigerian forward's destination remains undisclosed, Tuttomercatoweb's recent podcast hosted by Marco Conterio delved deeper into potential scenarios surrounding his next career move.

The departure news coincides with Lookman's continued Serie A dominance. According to performance metrics, the 26-year-old shares top billing in the league's player ratings among those with at least 19 appearances, matching Como's Nico Paz with an impressive 6.52 average match rating.
