Super Eagles star Ademola Lookman has been labelled as not good enough for Arsenal.

Ademola Lookman’s exit from Atalanta is all but certain, but hopes of a dream Premier League return, particularly to Arsenal, might be far fetched.

Despite speculation, a top transfer insider insists the Gunners have other priorities, despite rumours linking the Super Eagles star to the Gunners

Arsenal reportedly not keen on Lookman

Transfer market expert Matteo Moretto recently addressed the swirling rumours linking Lookman to Arsenal.

Speaking on Fabrizio Romano’s YouTube channel, Moretto said, "Lookman will leave Atalanta 99.9%," confirming the Nigerian forward's imminent departure. But when it comes to Arsenal, things are far less promising.

"He was offered to Arsenal, but I don’t think he is the first or even the second choice for them," Moretto stated bluntly.

Arsenal is not a serious club. Lookman is a serious Martinelli.

Quite an insult to our Nigerian NFA...

Lookman is a baller , a promising young man, if Arsenal is feeling too bad bot that they will even win any cup , then him check another club....

Even Lookman himself is not really keen on Arsenal. In fact, Arsenal and Man United should be a no go area for him. His chance of winning something at Man United is 50-50, at arsenal it is 0.

Lookman is greater than Arsenal. He has won the Europa League in less than 10 years of professional football, which Arsenal could only dream about for over 139 years.

Lookman and osimhen don enter the same boat,they both went to Italy and their careers thrived like never before but all of a sudden,they started listening to unwise words from ignorant Nigerians to go to the English premiership league but just look at them now, nobody really wants them there because no one is making any concrete moves for them.

Exactly...lots of folks up there just been overly emotional with their comments over just a simple observation or statement by an individual which maybe true or not true. Arsenal as a football club never made any deregotory comment about Lukman, they have not even indicated an interest to sign him or not. All the guy said was that he feels Arsenal priority might be in different area (maybe a centre forward) and clowns here just writing about trophies, bigger than club, bla bla bla bla.....Kai smh

Brother to brother, I will advice Lookman to continue to shine at Atalanta.

Napoli won league without Osimhen, but Osimhen won double without Napoli. They are both successful anyway. As for Lookman, he can go to better club that can win an European trophy and there are many of them. Arsenal will always remain trophyless. Without Wenger they are nothing.
