Atalanta reject Inter Milan’s bid for Lookman

Serie A club, Atalanta, on Thursday, turned down Inter Milan’s opening bid of €40m for their forward, Ademola Lookman.

According to football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, Atalanta want a fee of at least €50m from Inter Milan for Lookman’s signature.

“Inter [Milan] informed Atalanta about their opening €40m bid for Ademola Lookman, while Atalanta insist on fee at least reaching €50m,” Romano posted on X.

“Lookman wants to leave and hope club will facilitate his exit but Atalanta keep their position on no green light to Italian clubs at €40m.”

Lookman has already made it clear he wants to leave Atalanta this summer.

Lookman, 27, won the Europa League with Atalanta last year as he netted three goals in the final against Leverkusen.

However, Inter will have to step up their bid in the coming days to secure the signature of the Nigeria international.
