Yesterday the biggest bombshell yet in the summer transfer soap opera between Ademola Lookman, Atalanta, and Inter Milan arrived. Behind the scenes, the 27-year-old former RB Leipzig forward has been pressuring Atalanta into selling him. By all accounts, he only wants Inter this summer.

Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman says he has handed in a formal transfer request and alleged he has been the subject of “poor treatment” from the Serie A club. In a statement posted on social media on Sunday, Lookman claimed Atalanta’s hierarchy have gone back on promises and are blocking a potential move away.

Atalanta winger Ademola Lookman says the club has reneged on their promise to let him leave if a "fair" offer arrived.
