Ademola Lookman will not leave for less than €50 million. This is Atalanta’s position regarding the sale of its striker, whom Inter Milan are seeking to sign during the current summer transfer window.

Atalanta is insisting on receiving €50 million to part ways with Lookman, while Inter is offering only €40 million. This has hampered negotiations between the two parties so far, despite Inter Milan’s prior agreement with the Nigerian international on the personal terms of his contract. According to Italian media reports, Atalanta prefers to sell Lookman to a club outside Italy, despite the player’s clear desire to join Inter Milan.

Lookman, 27, joined Atalanta in the summer of 2022 from RB Leipzig (Germany) and has put in impressive performances for the team, scoring 52 goals in 118 appearances in all competitions.
