Talks between Inter Milan and Atalanta for Ademola Lookman are still at a standstill, but a player-plus-cash offer could unlock the deal.

This according to Italian broadcaster Sky Sport Italia, via FCInterNews.

The transfer soap opera between Inter, Atalanta, and Ademola Lookman has dominated the headlines over the last week.

The Nigerian international very publicly demanded a transfer to Atalanta last weekend. This after Atalanta had rejected a second offer from the Nerazzurri.

Then, Lookman took things a step further. The 27-year-old – who had already scrubbed all traces of Atalanta from his social media accounts – began no-showing training.

There’s no indication that Lookman plans to return to training for Atalanta.

The player is determine to force through the move to Inter, as he believes that La Dea had promised as much last summer.

Sooner or later, Inter and Atalanta will have to return to the negotiating table.

However, as of yet Sky Sport Italia report that the two clubs have yet to make contact again.

Inter are willing to raise their offer for Lookman. But the question is by how much.

Then, Sky suggest, the a key addition to Inter’s bid could be a player going the other way as a makeweight.

This could allow Atalanta to finally feel that an offer is truly satisfactory for them.
