Atalanta have rejected Inter Milan’s opening proposal of €40 million for Nigerian striker Ademola Lookman.
According to football transfer specialist, Fabrizio Romano, Atalanta is pressing for at least €50 million from Inter Milan for Lookman’s signing.
“Inter (Milan) informed Atalanta about their opening €40m bid for Ademola Lookman, while Atalanta insist on fee at least reaching €50m,” Romano posted on X.
“Lookman wants to leave and hope club will facilitate his exit but Atalanta keep their position on no green light to Italian clubs at €40m.”
Lookman has already made it clear that he wants to leave Atalanta this summer.
The 27-year-old Lookman won the Europa League with Atalanta last year as he netted three goals in the final against Leverkusen.
However, Inter will have to step up their bid in the coming days to secure the signature of the Nigeria international.
