Atalanta Talisman Rejects Arsenal Move – Waiting For Inter Milan
Ademola Lookman has reportedly rejected the idea of joining Arsenal, as he is waiting for another move by Inter Milan. This according to today's print edition of the Corriere di Bergamo, via FCInterNews. They report that the Nerazzurri could soon raise their offer for Lookman to €50 million. One thing that looks extremely clear is that Ademola Lookman wants to leave Atalanta this summer. The 27-year-old made a public transfer request. He accused La Dea of breaking a 'promise' to sell him this summer. Furthermore, Lookman has no-showed training for the past few days. It is also no secret that Lookman wants to join Inter. The player already has an agreement on personal terms with the Nerazzurri, who have had two offers turned down by Atalanta already. Ademola Lookman Rejects Arsenal – Only Wants Inter DUBLIN, IRELAND – MAY 22: Ademola Lookman of Atalanta BC bites their winner's medal as he celebrates victory after the UEFA Europa League 2023/24 final match between Atalanta BC and Bayer 04 Leverkusen at Dublin Arena on May 22, 2024 in Dublin, Ireland. (Photo by) However, Inter are not necessarily the only team to be eyeing up a move for Lookman. And the more time that passes without the Nerazzurri securing a deal, the likelier it is that other big European clubs could see the possibility to hijack the move. One particularly formidable rival for Lookman's signature would be Arsenal. The Gunners have reportedly been considering a move to take advantage of Lookman's unsettled situation. According to the Corriere di Bergamo, however, Lookman himself would have little interest in a switch to North London. The Nigerian wants Inter. And he's waiting for the Nerazzurri to make a new offer to Atalanta.
