Lookman's Inter Move Hits Atalanta Roadblock
On Friday, it was reported that Atalanta reportedly turned down an offer from Inter Milan for Nigerian winger Ademola Lookman during the current summer transfer window, according to Sky Sports.
The initial proposal from Inter included €42 million plus €3 million in bonuses, but Atalanta held firm on its valuation of €50 million for the player.
Despite the club's stance, Lookman has shown clear signs of wanting a move to Inter. The 26-year-old recently removed photos of himself in an Atalanta shirt from his Instagram account and deleted his profile description identifying him as an Atalanta player—actions widely seen as an attempt to pressure the club into approving the transfer.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Inter reached a personal agreement with Lookman on a five-year contract.
The player has reportedly rejected interest from other clubs, including Napoli, making it clear that he prefers a move to the Nerazzurri.
According to Italian media, Inter has since raised its offer to €45 million, though a gap of €5 million still separates the two clubs, with negotiations ongoing.
Lookman, whose contract with Atalanta run until summer 2027, joined the club in 2022 from Leicester City and has delivered standout performances that have drawn attention from Italy's top sides.

Rana Atef As part of Egypt's ongoing humanitarian support to the Palestinian people, the Abu El-Enein Foundation for Social and Cultural Work continues its intensive work to launch the 11th relief convoy to Gaza. This effort falls under the alliance of the National Alliance for Civil and Developmental Work, with the participation of hundreds of volunteers who work hard. The foundation's warehouses are witnessing evolved activity, as volunteers work to pack, wrap, and sort the aid supplies according to a carefully planned system that ensures urgent humanitarian needs are delivered to those who need them most inside Gaza. The convoy includes trucks loaded with dry food packages and essential relief materials intended to meet the needs of Palestinian families affected by ongoing aggression and blockade. The foundation emphasized that this convoy is a continuation of its active participation in relief efforts since the beginning of the crisis, reaffirming its national and humanitarian commitment and its dedication to being at the forefront of Egyptian civil society efforts in supporting the Palestinian people. Active coordination for the convoy's launch is being conducted under the direct guidance and real-time follow-up of Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives and Chairman of the Foundation, MP Mohamed Abu El-Enein, along with Vice Chair of the Board, Somaya Abu El-Enein.
