Inter Milan have been unable to persuade Atalanta to let Ademola Lookman continue his Serie A career at San Siro.

According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, the 20-time Italian champions are preparing for the worst-case scenario.

Talks with La Dea are taking longer than expected.

Furthermore, Atalanta’s firm stance on the 27-year-old’s valuation threatens to undermine the deal.

Indeed, they’ve shown zero interest in reducing their €50 million asking price for Ademola Lookman.

Inter Milan Identify Four Alternatives Amid Stalled Ademola Lookman Talks

With Beppe Marotta reluctant to let Atalanta bully him, Inter could soon turn to other targets.

Luckily, there are plenty of options.

Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho is on the club’s list of alternatives.

However, Inter’s backup plans feature two more names.

RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa has emerged as a potential target for the Nerazzurri.

Following Lois Openda and Xavi Simons, he becomes the third Leipzig star to attract interest from San Siro.

Then, there’s Christopher Nkunku, whose career at Chelsea appears all but sealed.

Finally, Alejandro Garnacho could be another solution for Inter as he has no future at Old Trafford.
