Richarlison’s arrival at Everton this week from Watford makes breaking through at the club even harder for Ademola Lookman, and would suggest an exit for the player is possible this summer.
RB Leipzig had the 20 year old on loan last season and have made no secret of their desire for him to return.
The Bundesliga club have made statements repeatedly about the potential transfer, but still haven’t put enough money where their mouth is.
Leipziger Volkszeitung today reports that the transfer track remains ‘open’ for their local club, and points out there’s already been two offers, of €12m and €14m, knocked back by Everton this summer.
The 20 year old is said to be ‘toying with the idea of a change’ to RB Leipzig.
Markische Oderzeitung reports Lookman remains at the top of the German club’s wish list, but the situation could depend on players being sold first, with it again being stated that Emil Forsberg is available for the right price.
Red Bull’s ‘Global Head of Soccer’ Oliver Mintzlaff is quoted by this week’s Sport Bild as saying: “There may well be one or two engagements of players, Ademola Lookman remains high on our wish list.”
