Report – Inter Milan Issue An Ultimatum To Atalanta: A Response By Friday To Offer For Nigeria Stalwart | OneFootball

Inter Milan have reportedly issued an ultimatum to Atalanta amid protracted talks over the transfer of Ademola Lookman.

According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri want a response to their final bid for the Nigerian star by Friday.

Despite Lookman’s verbal agreement with Inter, talks between the clubs are taking longer than expected.

Indeed, La Dea turned down Nerazzurri’s opening offer, worth €40 million, as they hold out for a €50 million asking price.

Inter presented Atalanta with a second bid for Ademola Lookman yesterday.

They offered a €45 million package for the 27-year-old.

Furthermore, they changed the deal formula, deciding against a loan with an obligation to buy.

Instead, they’re pushing to sign the former RB Leipzig ace outright.

However, Atalanta have yet to respond. Unwilling to let La Dea drag them into drawn-out talks, they’ve now issued an ultimatum.

Indeed, the Serie A runners-up have urged the Bergamo outfit to respond by Friday.
