Lookman has two years left on his contract with the Bergamo club.
Atalanta want to present a new contract to the Nigeria international, which will not delay a 2027 expiration date, but raise his salary and include a release clause of €40m.
The former UEFA Europa League winners rejected a €45m bid from Serie A rivals, Inter Milan for the player this summer.
Lookman is in line to make his first appearance of the season for Atalanta against Torino this weekend.

Ademola is gonna suffer with this atalanta team. I dont see them doing well this season. Ademola did, what do the english say “throw the tows out the pram” or in translation threw a tantrum because he couldnt get what he want, a move to another club.
Ivan juric a coach with no good credentials. Ademola had an offer for inter and napoli. I didnt like napoli because conte does poor in european competitions. I want these se players to win trophies. He didnt want to go to inter. And inter got beat up in the champions league final that the coach ran out of there to the middle east. But bayern put in a bid for him in which ademola wanted but atalanta didnt want to sell him to bayern. Bayern is always winning trophies is german league.
Now he has been penalized and ostracized. I agree no one is above the club. But last year was atalanta best chance to have won trophies with serie a and champions league. Analyst labeled atalanta as dark horses or second best in europe, but it was because of ademola. But he got injured, missed some games and the team dropped 1 point below the automatically round of 16. The team got eliminated by CLUB BRUGGE! It was too late when he returned for the second leg of the playoff. It was 5-2 aggregate.
Now they are saying he has to work back to get in the team. They will be losing without ademola. And they sold their goal scorer to saudi arabia. This club is not matching his ambitions, and you have to save yourself when the ship is sinking. Yoan wissa did that with brentford when they sold brian mbueno to man utd, he didnt want to be stuck on a team that is losing its best player. He was throwing tantrums until he got what he wanted.
Ademola is one of the very few ambitions person on the se team. Dont accept the new deal, let your contract run down or let them sell you
Mehn it’s a skill sha,, to be able to basically just chat a load of shyte and do it in so many words kaii!. You man take the f*****g biscuit. lool
I pray Lookman reject the offer. It’s not in his best interest. Atalanta wanted doing the same thing Napoli did to Osimhen to Lookman. He should wise up and reject the offer.
