Atalanta winger Ademola Lookman has reportedly gone on strike, refusing to play for the Serie A club. The Super Eagles forward informed La Dea that he will no longer feature for the team amid ongoing transfer developments.
Inter Milan is preparing to make a third bid for Lookman, following the rejection of their first two offers. Reports suggest the Italian champions are willing to increase their offer to meet Atalanta’s valuation.
Nigerian sports journalist Onyebuchi Onokala, also known as Buchi Laba, confirmed the development on X, stating: “100% Confirmed: Inter Milan will make another offer for Ademola Lookman. This third offer will be close to what Atalanta wants. Lookman has made it very clear to Atalanta he won’t play for the club anymore. He wants Inter, but Atalanta wants to sell him to clubs outside Italy.”
Lookman’s stance highlights his determination to move to Inter, even as Atalanta seeks to explore other options beyond Italy for the 27-year-old forward.
