Multiple sources are reporting that Inter offered €40m plus €5m in add-ons for Ademola Lookman, but Atalanta are still holding out for €50m.
The opening proposal for the forward had been rejected at €40m and it was hoped that today’s meeting between the clubs would lead to significant developments.

Sky Sport Italia, Sportitalia and Fabrizio Romano all point towards the same figures, namely that the latest offer is an improvement at €40m fixed fee plus €5m in add-ons.
However, as Alfredo Pedullà has been writing on Football Italia since the approach was first made earlier this month, Atalanta are holding out for €50m.
That can be achieved if it is just €45m in fixed fee and a further €5m in bonuses.

Sportitalia also reiterate that this has so far been just a verbal offer during the meeting, so Atalanta are waiting to receive the formal written proposal before giving a response.
The negotiations are in full swing and it remains to be seen if Inter are prepared to make that final push to get Lookman over the line.
