Barcelona's interest
Barcelona have been without a natural left winger for multiple seasons; hence, they sought out a player for the position last term, failing in their pursuit of Nico Williams.
Although Raphinha, a natural right winger, is thriving in the position this season, the Blaugrana still have plans of bringing in a player in the position and had previously eyed Rafael Leao.

Nowhere, they are said to have given up on the pursuit for the Portuguese due to his insistent form. The replacement they have in mind also plies his trade in Serie A, Lookman.
According to El Nacional, the Blaugrana sporting arm view the Nigerian forward as a perfect fit for their current setup, as he can be deployed as a winger or in the second striker position similarly to how Raphinha currently operates.
Lookman's valuation is believed to be around €25-30 million, as his contract expires in 2027. Given his fallout with Gian Piero Gasperini, La Dea are not expected to stand in the way of a possible deal.
