Report – Inter Milan Submit Improved Offer For Atalanta Star, Ball Now In La Dea’s Court | OneFootball

Inter Milan have reportedly submitted a new offer for Atalanta talisman Ademola Lookman.

According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri have tabled a €43 million bid for the Nigerian forward.

Inter Milan hope this improved offer will convince Atalanta to accept the deal.

However, Atalanta already turned down Inter’s initial approach for Ademola Lookman earlier this summer.

Despite seeing their opening bid fall flat, the Serie A runners-up are eager to secure Lookman’s signature in the next few days.

Unfazed by Atalanta’s €50 million asking price, Inter are pushing forward to complete the deal on their terms.

Indeed, Lookman’s wish to continue his career at San Siro puts the Nerazzurri in a strong bargaining position.

Furthermore, the 27-year-old has already rejected Atalanta’s contract offer, informing them of his desire to leave.

It’s now up to La Dea to re-evaluate the situation.

While Inter’s new offer falls short of their valuation, talks proceed in good faith.
