The 27-year-old has been eyeing an Atalanta exit this summer but now the forward has taken that a step further by openly asking to leave the club. The former Fulham loanee also alleged he has been the subject of bad treatment and accused the الدوري الإيطالي outfit of “blocking” his chance to secure a transfer move.u0026nbsp;
Part of Lookman’s bombshell Instagram statement reads: “There have been numerous clubs approach Atalanta in the past and I have previously always stayed loyal. However, myself and the ownership of the club have been in agreement that now is the right time and the club were clear with me that if a fair offer came in they would allow me to move. Despite now receiving an offer in alignment to what I believe had been discussed sadly the club are blocking the opportunity for reasons I do not understand. as a result and after many months of broken promises and what I feel has been poor treatment towards me as both a human being and as a professional footballer, sadly I feel I have no choice but to speak out for what I believe is right and I feel that enough is enough. I can confirm I have now handed in a formal transfer request.”

Inter have reportedly submitted a couple of bids for Lookman this summer but have not yet met Atalanta’s €50 million (£43.5m) valuation. The former Leicester City loanee has scored 52 goals and added 25 assists in 118 games for the Italian team, while starring in their Europa League triumph in 2024. However, it seems his time with the club is likely to end soon after this outburst.
It remains to be seen if former Arsenal and باريس سان جيرمان target Lookman, who still has two years left on his current contract, will be able to secure an Atalanta exit and join Inter in the coming weeks.
