Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman agrees personal terms with Inter Milan ahead of proposed move
Nigerian sensation Ademola Lookman has agreed to personal terms with Inter Milan amid the strong interest from the Italian Serie A giants.
Inter Milan officials are now negotiating with Atalanta BC on a fee to proceed with the signing of the talented winger.
The 27-year-old, who enjoyed a stellar season with Atalanta BC, scoring 20 goals and registering 7 assists in 40 appearances, has emerged as a top transfer target for Inter.
Despite receiving a more lucrative offer from Napoli worth €5 million per year, Lookman opted for Inter’s €4.5 million annual package, drawn by the club’s long-term project and prestige.
Inter Milan has already submitted an opening bid of €40 million to Atalanta for the talented winger, but the offer was turned down, with Atalanta holding firm on a €50 million valuation.
Negotiations between the two clubs are ongoing, with intermediaries working to bridge the gap.
Inter are exploring the inclusion of performance-related bonuses to meet Atalanta’s asking price.
Meanwhile, Lookman’s camp is reminding the Bergamo-based club of an earlier promise to allow him to leave should a suitable offer arrive.
Lookman could become a new player of Inter Milan this week if ongoing negotiations advance smoothly.
