Lookman still waiting for Inter, but respectful of Atalanta | OneFootball

The situation has not changed for Ademola Lookman, who is maintaining a professional attitude with Atalanta, but also knows that he has Inter in his future and a firm deadline too.

Over the last 24 hours, the Nerazzurri worked out deals to sell Aleksandar Stankovic to Club Brugge and Tajon Buchanan to Villarreal, putting together an additional kitty worth around €20m.

This will give them the opportunity to increase the proposal for the Nigerian, which had reached €40m.

As we already stated, an agreement can be reached if the bid rises to €45m plus €5m in add-ons, but there are other important elements to make clear too.

Lookman patient for Inter

The first is that the deadline is confirmed, Inter will not drag this on after July 31, so if nothing happens over the next few hours, we’d suggest circling the days from July 28 to 30 for developments.

The second matter is that Lookman is maintaining a very professional attitude with his current club.

He was at the Zingonia training ground today, he saluted the fans, is always on time for his treatments, and evidently waiting for a turning point that in his mind only takes the form of Inter.
