Former Torino striker, Giulio Ebagua has backed Ademola Lookman to get a top move in the summer, admitting that the Nigerian winger has proven that he can play at the highest level and should push for a big European move to Barcelona or Real Madrid, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

Lookman who recently achieved double-digit goal milestone for three consecutive seasons in the Serie A has been subject to a host of interest with Barcelona, Real Madrid, Liverpool, PSG, and Arsenal registering their desire for his signature albeit Atalanta isn't ready to lose their key performer without a good fight.

"The strongest African footballer, but by far. He has incredible qualities and can always improve aiming for the top. Lookman is a phenomenon in terms of characteristics, he can play anywhere and is also extraordinary as a human being", Ebagua told Europa Calcio in an exclusive interview.

"Next year I think he should leave Atalanta, even though the club is reaching the top: however, purely personal opinion, Lookman can aspire to Real, Manchester, Barcelona, ??wherever he wants. He himself will be able to improve further and raise the bar even further”.

As Atalanta pushes for a historic Serie A title, Lookman would be hoping to keep leading the side in what could somehow be his last dance with the club, and what better way than to end it on a high.
