No loan deal!: Atalanta blocks Bayern’s bid for Lookman
Italian Serie A side, Atalanta has confirmed that it has received an approach from FC Bayern Munich regarding forward Ademola Lookman.
The German club expressed interest in acquiring the Nigerian international through a loan arrangement with an option to buy, reportedly valued at €28 million.
After careful consideration, Atalanta has formally declined the proposed formula.
Lookman remains a fundamental part of Atalanta’s sporting project.
His contributions during the 2024/25 season—20 goals and 7 assists across all competitions—underscore his importance to the team and its ambitions.
The club reiterates that it will not entertain temporary solutions or conditional transfers for a player of such decisive impact.
Atalanta values clarity and commitment in all negotiations.
While the club remains open to dialogue with interested parties, any future discussions must reflect the player’s value and the club’s strategic direction.
