Ademola Lookman transfer chase stalls as Atalanta holds firm

Ademola Lookman remains high on Galatasaray’s list of winter transfer targets, but Atalanta refuses to soften its stance as the January window approaches.

The Nigerian international continues to attract growing interest across Europe after his strong performances in Serie A.

His contract with Atalanta runs until 2027, and the club treats him as a key figure in its long-term project.

Galatasaray, however, maintains strong admiration for the winger and prepares a significant offer in an effort to lure him to Istanbul.

Reports in Turkey suggest that Galatasaray sees Lookman as a priority signing and wants to complete a deal early in the window.

Yet transfer expert Ekrem Konur reveals that Atalanta will not approve any move unless the proposal reaches at least €50 million.

The Italian side set this valuation to deter bidders and ensure they keep control of Lookman’s future.

This situation adds another chapter to the ongoing tensions between Lookman and Atalanta, a storyline that has followed him for several months.

Despite the interest from abroad, the club stands firm and signals that only a huge bid can change its position.

Lookman’s next steps will draw continued attention in the coming weeks as Galatasaray weighs its options and Atalanta prepares to defend its stance through the winter window.
