demola Lookman has come under fire from Atalanta supporters after attempts to secure a move away from Bergamo this summer – www.isagoal.com reports.
According to This Day, fans expressed their frustration through chants, banners, and harsh nicknames directed at the Nigerian forward.
Lookman’s push to join Inter Milan, a direct rival in Serie A, has been the biggest trigger for the outrage.
Supporters argue that moving to their city rivals would be an unforgivable act of betrayal.
One of the loudest messages came from the Curva Nord 1907 group, who displayed a banner reading, “The shirt must be honoured. Another piece of bullshit will not be tolerated.”
The words were aimed squarely at the Super Eagles star, leaving no doubt about the depth of their anger.
In protest, sections of the fan base went as far as calling him “Guipiman,” a term likening him to a street sweeper.
Another group, the Vecchia Guardia, doubled down on their rejection, making it clear they had lost patience with the winger.
The situation has created growing tension around Lookman’s future as the new Serie A season gets underway.
