Ademola Lookman is currently training in the gym as he anticipates donning a black and blue jersey, either for Atalanta or Inter. The Nigerian forward finds himself at the heart of a significant impasse with less than a month remaining before the championship begins. It is anticipated that there will be new discussions and a renewed proposal in the coming hours between the management teams of the two clubs. Inter has already raised its offer from an initial 40 million euros to approximately 43 million plus bonuses. However, Atalanta, known as 'Dea', reportedly remains firm in its stance, unwilling to accept anything less than 50 million. The decision holds considerable importance, as Inter's manager, Chivu, is planning a change in the team's formation that necessitates a player with Lookman's skill set. The result of the negotiation could trigger a ripple effect for both clubs.

There are fresh contract talks with Atalanta for Ademola Lookman. His performances in Italy are increasing his chances of a move to a top club.

Atalanta might need to improve Lookman's contract if they reject Arsenal's offer.

Atalanta is considering a rich contract renewal for Lookman worth 3.5 million per year. Percassi, the club president, has set a price of around 65-70 million for Lookman's transfer, indicating that the player is not for sale.
