Arsenal have made a strong start to their Premier League season with two 2-0 wins against Wolves and Aston Villa.

The Gunners have started the new season just like they ended the last season, in fine form.

With just four days left in the transfer window to shut down, the fans are expecting the club to make a late move to further strengthen their squad and challenge Manchester City for the Premier League title again.

One of the players Arsenal have been linked to this summer is Atalanta attacker Ademola Lookman.

The Nigerian, who looked certain to join Paris Saint-Germain at one stage, is being monitored by Mikel Arteta’s team.

The Gunners have received a major boost after his move to the French champions has stalled.

As per TBR Football, the North Londoners hold an interest in the player who scored a hat-trick in the Europa League final last season.

Sky reporter Florian Plettenberg has now provided the latest update on the future of Lookman.

He wrote:

“Ademola Lookman, still very keen to join Paris Saint-Germain as PSG is currently his first choice.

“26 y/o versatile striker waiting for decisions. But a possible deal currently stalling as there’s no club-to-club agreement and Paris currently not willing to pay the demanded amounts.

“Therefore, PSG deal currently unlikely. Arsenal and other top clubs, still monitoring Lookman‘s situation. Wait and see.”
