The standoff between Ademola Lookman and Atalanta takes an increasingly tense turn. After the dea of the DEA of the offer of € 42 million + € 3 M of bonus formulated by Inter Friday, the Nigerian striker expressed his dissatisfaction on social networks. This Monday, he did not show up in Zingonia for the resumption of training, without apparent medical justification. An absence of meaning, which seems to translate a clear break with the Bergamasque club. Not only did Lookman dried up the session, but he did not have lunch with his teammates this afternoon at the training center. An attitude which confirms his displayed desire to join the Inter, despite the firmness of the director general Luca Percassi, who swept the idea of an immediate departure on the sidelines of the presentation of Marco Sportielo.
“It's a good opportunity to clarify what happened. Last year, faced with an offer of 20 million euros from PSG, the player asked us to sell it. Atalanta, being a respectable and respected club with values, promised to be able to sell the player during this transfer window on two conditions which he had posed to us: first, that he joins a leading European club and that in Italy, he was never seen under another jersey than that of Atalanta, both for what he did and for what he received from the club. Today, the situation you know is very different. In any case the club is always attentive to assess the statutes and values of its players, but as always it is the club of the Atalanta which will decide at the end “. The case could still be adorned in the coming days.
