Overview

• Ademola Lookman has refused to attend Atalanta training sessions after lodging a formal transfer request on August 1.
• Atalanta maintains a strict €50m valuation for the forward and has rebuffed Inter Milan’s latest €45m offer including add-ons.
• The 27-year-old has made clear his sole preference to join Inter Milan and is reported to have agreed personal terms with the club.
• Arsenal are monitoring the saga and could test Atalanta with a near £44m bid, but Lookman remains focused on a move to Inter.
• Atalanta’s one-sale-per-season policy, profit-sharing obligations to RB Leipzig, and reluctance to sell to domestic rivals underpin the ongoing impasse.
