Atalanta want more than €50 million for forward Ademola Lookman, and are willing to keep hold of the Nigerian if Inter Milan don’t bid that high.
This according to L’Eco di Bergamo, via FCInterNews.
The transfer saga between Inter, Atalanta, and Ademola Lookman has now dragged on for the better part of a month.
Inter have made two offers for the Nigerian international. First, they made a bid worth €40 million all-in. Then, after Atalanta rejected that, they increased it to €45 million including add-ons.
Atalanta then rejected Inter’s second bid for Lookman.
And in the meantime, the former RB Leipzig forward has done everything he possibly can to force through a move to Inter.
Lookman has publicly demanded a transfer. he has also no-showed training for well over a week.
Atalanta Want More Than €50M For Ademola Lookman
The big question has always been whether Atalanta would accept an offer under €50 million.
Inter have gotten as high as €45 million including add-ons. However, they have balked at going much higher.
According to L’Eco di Bergamo, though, Atalanta want a fee of over €50 million to sell Lookman.
Furthermore, the newspaper report, La Dea are prepared to hold onto the 27-year-old if they do not receive an offer that they deem to be sufficient.
Even if Lookman continues to kick up a fuss, Atalanta are ready to keep the player as part of their squad next season.
For being greedy and stupid Atalanta should get relegated this season.
Well, Atalanta knows they will be fighting for relegation next season so they want their scapegoat. They know they will damage the player’s fitness and psychology. There’s no way Lookman will play for Atalanta ever again let alone accept an offer they would force on him since their agreement to let him go was public he will eventually leave this transfer market even if it’s not Inter. But him coming to Inter would mean he is going to have a lot of motivation to prove himself which we all know he can do. A bonus would be him scoring some goals against Atalanta next season
Now this is crazy.
Hey Atalanta, keep him and deal with a poor attitude from all of this nonsense all season. Morons!
Go for Joshua Zirkzee. at the max 35M and he is Inter player. equally good to Lookman ic not more and younger as well.
really Zirkzee come bro…upon all the players Zirkzee so who you’re recommending a big NO for me and i’ll repeat myself again….Inter didn’t have any plans for this summer
Are u really an inter fan suggesting such player 4 our beloved team Lookmon or nobody
