A marathon chess match between Atalanta and Inter Milan regarding the future of Ademola Lookman looks far from over.
According to Sport Mediaset via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri will take a more passive approach.
Inter had tried to press the issue with back-to-back offers.
However, both attempts came a cropper, including a sizeable €45 million bid.
Meanwhile, Atalanta reportedly ask for €50 million to let their standout forward leave the Gewiss Stadium.
Furthermore, they’re stubbornly sticking to their guns.
Negotiations between the clubs have hit a standstill.
On the other hand, Ademola Lookman has already agreed on personal terms with Inter.
Moreover, he has left Bergamo in a desperate attempt to force Atalanta to greenlight the transfer.
However, La Dea remain radio-silent.
Atalanta’s real asking price remains a mystery, with Inter desperate to find common ground fast.
With time ticking away, the Nerazzurri could soon turn to other targets.
Jadon Sancho and Christopher Nkunku would be their go-to options.
