Super Eagles and Atalanta forward, Ademola Olajade Lookman, could play his last game for the club against Parma this weekend, Soccernet.ng reports.
After a series of loan spells in England and Germany, the 27-year-old finally found his feet in Bergamo after signing for Atalanta in 2022.

His current deal with Atalanta expires in June 2026, and there will be no contract renewal as he fell out with the club's coach, Gian Piero Gasperini, over a missed penalty kick that saw La Dea exit the UEFA Champions League against Club Brugge.
As per Football Italia, Ademola Lookman and Ederson Jose Dos Santos will make their final Atalanta appearance on Sunday, with the club aiming to earn almost €100m from the sale of the duo.
Atalanta are ready to listen to offers for the pair in the summer, willing to sell Lookman for about €40m and the Brazilian midfielder for at least €50m.
These players were curated by Gian Piero Gasperini, who has made it clear he won't sign a contract extension if he doesn't get a squad upgrade this summer. His current deal runs out next year.
Lookman's likeliest destination is currently unknown, but Manchester United and West Ham will have a problem competing with their counterparts in the race for the London-born Nigerian, as they will not be playing Champions League football next season.
