Inter Milan and Atalanta reportedly reopened discussions over Ademola Lookman earlier this morning.

According to Alfredo Pedulla via FCInter1908, the clubs have resumed talks with renewed optimism.

Despite Atalanta’s firm stance, Ademola Lookman is keen to force his transfer to Inter.

Indeed, the player already has an agreement with the Nerazzurri over personal terms.

Furthermore, he plans to hold Atalanta to last year’s promise and secure a move to San Siro.

Inter’s opening €40 million bid fell short of Atalanta’s asking price. Meanwhile, La Dea are holding out for €50m.

However, Lookman’s desire to join the Nerazzurri could force Atalanta’s hand.

Negotiations paused for a while, but the clubs met again this morning to discuss terms.

Indeed, Inter are growing confident of snatching away the 27-year-old before the end of July.

Lookman’s will could unlock the deal, with Inter aiming to intensify talks in the coming days.

On the other hand, they’re working to offload Mehdi Taremi, which would see them collect the necessary funds.
