Ademola Lookman Misses Atalanta Training Again

Ademola Lookman has once again stayed away from pre-season training with Serie A club Atalanta for the second consecutive day.

Lookman is pushing hard to leave La Dea following interest from Serie A rivals Inter Milan.

The Nigeria international submitted a transfer request on Sunday, accusing La Dea of “broken promises” and treating him “poorly as a human being and as a professional footballer.”

The 27-year-old initially skipped training on Monday to express his discontent.

Lookman has continued his protest, hoping it will force a breakthrough in the deadlock between Atalanta and Inter.

Atalanta rejected Inter Milan’s €45 million bid for the talented winger last week.

The former Leicester City player has two years remaining on his contract with Atalanta.
