Inter Milan Eyes Ademola Lookman Transfer as Atalanta Awaits Improved Offer

Atalanta are currently expecting a revised proposal from Inter Milan for Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman, after rejecting an initial bid of €40 million.

The Bergamo-based club, known for its strict negotiation stance, is holding out for a higher price tag—reportedly in the region of €50 million—to part ways with their star winger. Lookman, who has gained massive continental recognition as the reigning African Footballer of the Year, remains a prized asset in the current transfer market.

While Inter Milan’s first attempt to land the winger fell short, La Dea have made it clear they will only consider letting him go if their valuation is met.

Meanwhile, sources from Calciomercato suggest that Inter Milan have already secured personal terms with the former Leicester City attacker. The Serie A giants are now reportedly preparing an improved offer in the range of €42 million to €43 million, as they aim to finalize the deal during the current summer transfer window.

Lookman has shown strong interest in joining Inter, turning down an approach from Serie A champions Napoli, signaling that his preference lies with the San Siro club.

This potential transfer could become one of the most significant moves involving an African player this season, as Lookman’s consistent performance and high-profile status continue to draw attention from Europe’s top clubs.
