Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman’s relationship with the club has hit rock bottom: the Nigerian star has not only skipped pre-season training but also cleared all Atalanta-related content from his social media, declaring a Breakup through his actions.
Inter Milan’s pursuit of Lookman is no secret — the Nerazzurri have seen two bids rejected by Atalanta but have already agreed personal terms with the player. Lookman’s desire to join Inter is so strong that he even said he would "willingly walk to Milan" for the move. Atalanta, however, is standing firm on a €50 million valuation, refusing to budge.
Tensions boiled over recently: following his agent’s hints, Lookman first deleted all club-related posts on social platforms, then skipped the training camp lunch, and finally refused to attend training altogether. He cited a "minor calf injury" as the reason, but in reality, he trained normally the previous day. This "abnormal" move plays right into Inter’s hands — the Nerazzurri are planning a third bid, hoping to use the player’s stance to pressure Atalanta into relenting.
