Inter's €45m Lookman Bid Rejected Again by Atalanta

Atalanta have reportedly rejected Inter Milan’s second offer for Ademola Lookman, worth €45 million.

This according to Italian broadcaster Sky Sport Italia, via FCInterNews .

Inter Milan have been pushing to sign forward Ademola Lookman from Atalanta. This week, they made their second official offer for the Nigerian international.

Atalanta had already reportedly rejected a €40 million bid from Inter for Lookman a couple weeks ago. However, that did not deter Inter .

Therefore, the Nerazzurri raised their offer to €45 million including add-ons. Reports suggest that it was around €42 million plus €3 million in add-ons.

Inter formally presented their second offer for Lookman earlier this week.

Atalanta have taken their time to respond to the bid. The Nerazzurri have had to wait a couple of day for the reply from their Lombard neighbours.

However, today Atalanta have delivered their response to Inter .

And according to Sky Sport Italia, La Dea have flatly denied the second offer.

Furthermore, Atalanta have not made a counteroffer to Inter . They have not named any valuation for the 27-year-old, hinting at an outright unwillingness to sell him.

Therefore, the broadcaster anticipate that this could bring a swift end to the transfer saga between Inter and Lookman.
