Milan, Italy — July 16, 2025 – Inter Milan have expressed strong interest in signing Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman from Atalanta in the ongoing summer transfer window, according to reports from Corriere dello Sport.
The Serie A champions are reportedly preparing a €35 million bid for the 26-year-old winger, who enjoyed an impressive 2024/25 season with 15 goals and 4 assists in 31 appearances across all competitions for Atalanta.
Lookman, who recently returned to Atalanta for pre-season training, has also attracted interest from several top European clubs, including Juventus, Arsenal, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid.
While Atalanta are open to parting ways with the Nigeria international, the Bergamo-based club is demanding a transfer fee of around €50 million, significantly higher than Inter’s current offer.
Inter Milan see Lookman as a potential replacement for Mehdi Taremi, who is currently being targeted by Fulham and Besiktas. With just one year left on his contract, Lookman’s future at Atalanta remains uncertain, and a move could materialize if both clubs reach an agreement.
The coming weeks will be crucial as negotiations intensify and Inter look to strengthen their squad ahead of the new Serie A campaign.
