Inter Milan have made their final bid for Ademola Lookman, but Atalanta continue to demand their original valuation for the standout forward. According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, La Dea will only sanction Lookman's sale for €50 million. Ivan Juric's side turned down Inter's opening bid for the 27-year-old.

It consists of €40 million to be paid upfront and an additional €5 million in add-ons.

Report – Atalanta Could Give Inter Milan Discount For Nigeria Stalwart But On One Condition
Atalanta have yet to respond to the final offer made by Inter Milan for their headline forward Ademola Lookman. According to FCInterNews, there's only one way for the Nerazzurri to change La Dea's mind. Indeed, Ivan Juric's charges are open to discussing the transfer fee, but on one condition. They've already informed the San Siro club of their €50 million asking price and unpreparedness to budge on it. However, there's still a small wriggle room.

Indeed, Atalanta will reportedly let Lookman go if they get €45 million upfront plus €2-3 million in add-ons.

Portugal's Joao Felix joins Ronaldo at Al Nassr in Saudi
Portuguese forward Joao Felix has signed a two-year deal with Saudi Arabia's Al Nassr, where he will join Cristiano Ronaldo, the club announced Tuesday. Felix, now 25, made a blockbuster move from Benfica to Atletico Madrid in 2019, but has since seen his fortunes decline. "I'm here to spread joy. Let's win together," said Felix in a video posted on the Riyadh club's X account. A separate post said he had signed until 2027. Felix remains one of the most expensive transfers in history, following his move to Atletico for 127.7 million euros ($147.3 million) six years ago. He has since failed to score more than 10 goals a season, despite stints at Barcelona, AC Milan and Chelsea. According to Arryadia, a Riyadh sports newspaper, Felix will earn $10 million a year. Saudi Arabia has shaken up football by spending heavily on stars from Europe, starting with Ronaldo's arrival in 2023, and the conservative desert nation will host the World Cup in 2034. Many of the signings have been ageing stars, but Felix bucks the trend along with Mateo Retegui, 26, the Serie A top-scorer who joined Al Qadsiah last week. French international Theo Hernandez, 27, left AC Milan for Al Hilal in a reported $29 million deal earlier this month. Top coaches have also been lured to Saudi Arabia, including Italy's Simone Inzaghi who led Al Hilal to an upset win over Manchester City at the Club World Cup. At Al Nassr, Felix will be working under Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus, who was sacked by Al Hilal in May following their defeat in the Asian Champions League semi-finals. ds/th/nf
