Inter Milan sporting director Piero Ausilio has identified Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman as a ‘dream’ transfer target.

According to Sport Mediaset via FCInter1908, the Nigerian star is ‘excited’ about continuing his career at San Siro.

For years, Ademola Lookman has been one of the fiercest forwards in Serie A.

Indeed, his impressive performances have attracted interest from several top European clubs.

However, the ex-Leicester City ace could stay in Italy’s top flight.

Inter Milan Identify Ademola Lookman as Dream Target

Inter are working on offloading fringe striker Mehdi Taremi.

Yet, the Nerazzurri won’t replace the Iranian goal-getter with another out-and-out striker.

Instead, they’re seeking a different profile, someone capable of covering multiple roles in attack.

Lookman fits the bill, but he won’t come cheap.

Aware of the 27-year-old’s quality, Ivan Juric’s men have slapped a significant €50 million price tag on their prized asset.

Meanwhile, Inter cannot meet Atalanta’s request without selling at least one major star.

However, Lookman’s deal expires in two years, which could play into Inter’s hands.
