Super Eagles winger Ademola Lookman has reportedly agreed to a €40 million transfer from Atalanta to Inter Milan.
Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio reports that Inter have acted swiftly to secure the Nigerian star, with the club ready to submit a formal offer to Atalanta to finalize the deal.
“Inter are serious about Lookman, agreement with the player, €40m ready for Atalanta,” Di Marzio reported.
The former Leicester City winger is currently under contract at Atalanta until 2027, but talks between the clubs have begun, with Inter hoping that a previously made promise by Atalanta to allow Lookman leave this summer will be respected.
Despite Atalanta’s valuation of €50m, Inter are willing to pay €40m with no intention of increasing their bid.
“Atalanta are asking for at least €50m, but Inter do not intend to go beyond their proposal,” Di Marzio added.
“The player has already given his approval to the transfer, which is why the Champions League runners-up are keen to avoid prolonged negotiations. If talks drag on, Inter may decide to move on to other targets, including Nico Gonzalez.”
Lookman enjoyed a standout 2024–25 campaign, scoring 15 goals and playing a decisive role in Atalanta’s UEFA Europa League triumph.
