Inter Milan are awaiting the response of Atalanta to their offer for forward Ademola Lookman by Saturday at the latest.
This according to Italian transfer reporter Matteo Moretto, via FCInterNews.
Inter Milan have now really set out their stall in their pursuit of Ademola Lookman.
On Tuesday, the Nerazzurri raised their bid for the Nigerian from €40 million to €45 million, including add-ons.
First this came informally, in a conversation between Inter President Beppe Marotta and Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi. Then, Inter officially sent their bid via e-mail, reports the Gazzetta dello Sport.
Inter are offering an initial fee of €42 million for Lookman. Plus €3 million in add-ons.
Inter Expect Atalanta Response To Lookman Offer By Saturday Morning

According to transfer reporter Matteo Moretto, Atalanta are not going to wait long to respond to Inter’s latest offer.
The Italian transfer reporters report that La Dea will give their response by tomorrow. And at the very latest, it will come some time by Saturday.
Inter will know when Atalanta’s response is by the start of this weekend.
let’s just go get Fofana from Lyon and get over it
I agree. I prefer we go for Fofana who would cost around 30 – 35mil and is younger. Also I would trust a player from Lyon more than a player from Atlanta to perform.
Every other team isn’t like ours, they ve a price for their players. We either pay or leave out
I can’t wait any longer it feels like its been 5 years
What the fuck? What happened to waiting on Friday for those greedy bastards to respond?
Now it’s been established if they keep on doing that and end up with Lookman staying it means they’ll be in trouble as he was promised and even their president has mention where he wants to play next season. Inter do need the player but it’s also clear other deadweight players have no intentions of leaving (Asllani) so even if it 2-3 million saved from the Lookman transfer it’ll be worth it. Realistic it’ll be by next week everything becomes official but Lookman is essentially an Inter player unless something crazy happens
