Atalanta are reportedly getting ready for life without Ademola Lookman as the Nigerian international inches toward a potential big-money move to Inter Milan — www.isagoal.com reports.
Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews, claims the Bergamo-based side has zeroed in on Olympique Marseille forward Jonathan Rowe as a possible successor.
Talks between Inter and Atalanta appear to be advancing fast, with a second offer now on the table reportedly worth €45 million.
Lookman has yet to receive the final green light from Atalanta, but the move to San Siro seems increasingly likely.
The 27-year-old attacker is said to be open to the switch, which would mark a significant change in Atalanta’s attacking options.
“Inter are pressing hard — it’s clear they see Lookman as a key addition,” a source close to the negotiations shared.
Atalanta, sensing the inevitable, have already begun scouting alternatives in case the deal goes through.
Rowe, currently with Marseille, is now seen as a priority target by Atalanta to fill the gap Lookman might leave.
If Inter secure Lookman, their attention may shift quickly to defensive reinforcements, with Parma’s Giovanni Leoni reportedly under consideration next.
