Transfer Battle Heats Up as Inter Milan Target Ademola Lookman for €35m
Inter Milan are the latest club to enter the race for Ademola Lookman, with the Nerazzurri lining up a €35 million bid for the in-form Nigerian international, according to Corriere dello Sport.
The Atalanta forward, who recently returned for pre-season training, is on the radar of top European clubs, including Juventus, Arsenal, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid. But it’s Inter who are pushing hardest at the moment, seeing Lookman as a long-term replacement for Mehdi Taremi, who is attracting serious interest from Fulham and Besiktas.
🔢 Stats That Speak
15 goals, 4 assists
31 appearances in all competitions for Atalanta
1 year left on his current contract
Atalanta are reportedly open to selling but are holding firm on a €50 million valuation, a figure Inter are hoping to negotiate down.
🧠 Opinion: Inter May Strike Gold – But Timing Is Everything
Lookman’s stock has skyrocketed after a standout season and a historic hat-trick in the Europa League final. He’s proven himself not only in Serie A but on the European stage, showing versatility, composure, and clutch finishing.
For Inter, this could be a shrewd investment — especially with Taremi likely to depart. But the big question is whether they’ll match Atalanta’s price tag or risk losing out to clubs with deeper pockets like Arsenal or Barca.
From Lookman’s perspective, a move to Inter — reigning Serie A champions and consistent Champions League contenders — could be the natural next step in his career arc.
