Inter Milan remain determined in their pursuit of Atalanta star Ademola Lookman, refusing to back down despite ongoing resistance from La Dea.

According to Sportitalia via FCInter1908, the Nerazzurri will not give up on their effort to sign the Nigerian forward.

Cristian Chivu’s charges are reluctant to pull the plug on the deal despite Atalanta’s resistance.

Indeed, the Bergamo club has been stubborn about their €50 million valuation of Ademola Lookman.

Inter Milan Reluctant to Give Up on Atalanta Star Ademola Lookman

Inter can only sign the 27-year-old if Atalanta agree to lower their asking price.

However, they’re actively trying to offload several fringe players to raise funds for Lookman’s arrival.

Their second offer fell €5 million short of Atalanta’s asking price, which is hardly an unbridgeable gap.

Yet, Inter, in all likelihood, must adhere to La Dea’s demands.

Otherwise, their verbal agreement with the player may count for nothing.

Meanwhile, Lookman is pressuring Atalanta to let him join the San Siro giants.

His actions have yet to come to fruition, though.
