Several sources report that Inter have submitted a bid of €40 million plus €5 million in add-ons for Ademola Lookman, but Atalanta remain firm on their €50 million valuation.
The initial €40 million offer was rejected, and it was hoped that today’s meeting between the clubs would bring meaningful progress.
Yet Sky Sport Italia, Sportitalia and Fabrizio Romano all point towards the same figures, namely that the latest offer is an improvement at €40m fixed fee plus €5m in add-ons.

However, as Alfredo Pedullà has been writing on Football Italia since the approach was first made earlier this month, Atalanta are holding out for €50m.
That can be achieved if it is just €45m in fixed fee and a further €5m in bonuses.
Sportitalia also reiterate that this has so far been just a verbal offer during the meeting, so Atalanta are waiting to receive the formal written proposal before giving a response.
The negotiations are in full swing and it remains to be seen if Inter are prepared to make that final push to get Lookman over the line.
