Ademola Lookman Refuses to Play for Atalanta as He Pushes for Inter Milan Move
Ademola Lookman’s future at Atalanta has taken a dramatic turn, with the Nigerian winger reportedly refusing to feature for the Serie A side again. Reports suggest the Super Eagles star has told the club he is done playing for them, as Inter Milan prepare to table a third bid.
The Italian giants have already had two offers turned down, but are said to be edging closer to Atalanta’s valuation. Inter remain determined to bring the 26-year-old to the San Siro this summer.
Sports journalist Onyebuchi Onokala, popularly known as Buchi Laba, confirmed the situation on X, stating that Lookman has made it clear he only wants Inter. According to him, while Atalanta would prefer to sell abroad, the player has drawn a line, his mind is set on joining the Nerazzurri.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
