Fenerbahçe are closing in on a major transfer deal for Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman.
Negotiations between both clubs are now at an advanced stage, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Fresh talks held on Friday have pushed discussions closer to a full agreement.
The proposed deal is valued at around €40 million, including performance-based add-ons.
Fenerbahçe have made strong progress and are increasingly confident of completing the transfer.
However, some key details still need to be finalised before the move is sealed.
Discussions continue over the payment structure and required bank guarantees.
These financial assurances are seen as crucial to completing the agreement.
Lookman has emerged as a priority target for the Turkish giants.
Fenerbahçe want to significantly boost their attacking options ahead of the new season.
The Nigerian international is viewed as a marquee signing for the club.
If completed, the transfer would rank among Fenerbahçe’s biggest in recent years.
It would also underline their ambition domestically and in European competitions.
Atalanta, meanwhile, are open to negotiations at the right valuation.
Lookman has been one of their standout attacking performers in recent seasons.
The coming days are expected to be decisive in finalising the deal.
