Inter Milan reportedly aren’t planning to raise their offer for Ademola Lookman, whilst Atalanta are sticking to an asking price of €50 million.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Corriere della Sera, via FCInterNews. They report that the Nerazzurri are hoping to rely on the player to force Atalanta’s hand.

Yesterday, Atalanta gave their response to Inter’s second offer for Ademola Lookman.

Having already turned down a bid of €40 million for the Nigerian, the Bergamo club also rejected Inter’s second offer of €42 million plus €3 million in add-ons.

This did not go down well with Inter, of course.

But in particular, the response from Atalanta infuriated Lookman, who removed all mention of Atalanta from his social media. Including pictures in an Atalanta kit.

Inter Won’t Raise Offer For Ademola Lookman – Atalanta Demand €50M Fee

According to the Corriere della Sera, Inter are not going to raise their offer any further.

The newspaper anticipate that the Nerazzurri feel that the €45 million bid is fair.

On the other hand, the Corriere della Sera reports, Atalanta are insisting on their demands of a fee of €50 million at least.

Therefore, there is clearly an impasse.

However, the Corriere della Sera adds, Inter have not given up on Lookman. Rather, they are hoping that the player himself forces the deal through.
