Italian Serie A side, Atalanta BC, has firmly declined an initial €40 million transfer offer from Inter Milan for their Nigerian attacker, Ademola Lookman.
In a recent update shared via Fabrizio Romano’s official X (formerly Twitter) handle, the football insider stated:
Additionally, Romano reported that Lookman is keen on making a move this summer. The Nigerian forward has expressed his desire to leave Bergamo and hopes that Atalanta will ease his transfer process. Despite this, the club remains unmoved, especially regarding offers from Italian rivals.
“Lookman wants to exit Atalanta and is hopeful the club will cooperate, yet Atalanta holds a firm stance, declining to approve any deal at €40 million—particularly with Italian clubs,” Romano added.
Ademola Lookman’s Achievements with Atalanta
The 27-year-old Nigerian international, who was pivotal in Atalanta’s historic Europa League victory, has made headlines for his stellar performance. In the Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen, Lookman scored a remarkable hat-trick, securing Atalanta’s triumph in the competition for the 2023/24 season.
His outstanding contributions have drawn interest from top European clubs, but Inter Milan will need to significantly improve their bid if they hope to secure his services.
What Next for Inter Milan?
With Atalanta’s €50 million valuation, Inter Milan faces a critical decision: either raise their offer or risk losing the Nigerian forward to other suitors who might be willing to meet the asking price. Fans and football analysts await the next steps from the Serie A giants, who are eager to bolster their squad ahead of the upcoming season.
