The Bergamo club are therefore no longer making any effort to hide the fact they could lose Lookman this summer.
Therefore, Tuttosport report, the Nerazzurri believe that Atalanta have accepted that they must play ball, and will accordingly accept their most recent offer.

Tottenham XI vs Bayern Munich: Solanke return, confirmed team news, predicted lineup, injury latest for friendly
Dominic Solanke is expected to be available for selection ahead of Tottenham's final pre-season friendly. The striker picked up an ankle injury in a friendly clash against Reading in July and has not appeared since, but it is hoped he can return to the fold on Thursday as the Lilywhites visit Bavaria to face Bayern Munich. They will make the trip without James Maddison, though, after the midfielder was stretchered off with a fresh knee injury during a 1-1 draw with Newcastle at the weekend. Son Heung-Min will also be absent after he bid an emotional farewell to the club in the same match. He is expected to complete a move to LAFC in the coming days. As this is Spurs' last friendly outing ahead of the UEFA Super Cup, Frank is expected to name a squad similar to that which will face European champions Paris Saint-Germain. Maddison's injury means that Lucas Bergvall could return to the starting XI as a No10, as he did against Arsenal in Hong Kong a week ago. Son's absence is set to prompt a shake-up in Frank's forward line, and could open the door for Solanke to return. Frank said last week that the striker 'should be fit' to return in time for the Bayern clash, and, with Richarlison struggling for form, he could be handed a chance to impress, though his minutes may be limited as he looks to avoid reaggravating the injury. Mohamed Kudus has been quick off the mark after moving to north London and should return on the right wing, while Mathys Tel is set to face his former club for the first time in place of Wilson Odobert. Pape Matar Sarr, scorer of a wonder goal in last week's north London derby, and Rodrigo Bentancur have proven an effective defensive midfield partnership this summer, but Frank may opt to try a new combination, handing Archie Gray a run out alongside the Senegalese as he looks to determine his best midfield setup. Joao Palhinha is in the running to take a holding midfield role, but, after joining the club on Sunday, it is likely too soon for him to start. He will be eyeing a debut cameo, though. Pedro Porro and Cristian Romero will continue to hold down the right-hand side of the Spurs back four, though the left side has seen more rotation this summer. After they held Arsenal goalless, though, Djed Spence and Micky van de Ven should get the nod. Tottenham predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Sarr, Gray; Tel, Bergvall, Kudus; Solanke Injured: Maddison, Kulusevski, Udogie, Dragusin, Takai, Solomon, Gil Time and date: 5.30pm on Thursday, August 7, 2025. Venue: Allianz Arena, Munich How to watch: SPURSPLAY

Report – Two Inter Milan Stars Training Partially With Squad While Italy Midfielder Yet To Resume Training
Yann Bisseck and Piotr Zielinski have reportedly returned to training, while Inter Milan are still waiting for Davide Frattesi to recover fully. According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, the injury crisis is dwindling as Inter's pre-season under Cristian Chivu gathers momentum. Chivu couldn't count on numerous first-team players during Inter's 2025 FIFA Club World Cup campaign. Indeed, all three aforementioned stars were out with injuries. Furthermore, Hakan Calhanoglu and Benjamin Pavard were not part of the traveling squad. Bisseck & Zielinski Training Partially with Inter Milan Squad, Frattesi Still Working Alone MILAN, ITALY – MARCH 30: Davide Frattesi of FC Internazionale looks on during the warm up prior to the Serie A match between FC Internazionale and Udinese at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on March 30, 2025 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) Bisseck and Zielinski have returned to the group at Appiano Gentile. Despite not participating in the entire training session, they have begun working partially with the squad. Therefore, it's reasonable to expect them to regain full fitness soon and be ready for Inter's pre-season friendlies. On the other hand, Frattesi's return may require some additional time. Indeed, the 25-year-old midfielder is still recovering from the abdominal surgery he underwent last month. However, Chivu hopes to have the former Sassuolo man for Inter's final pre-season friendly against Olympiacos.
