Ademola Lookman Requests Transfer from Atalanta

Ademola Lookman, the Atalanta striker, has officially requested to leave the club, as he revealed in a post shared on Instagram this Sunday. The 27-year-old forward expressed his dissatisfaction with what he perceives as a series of unmet promises and inadequate treatment, both personally and professionally, stating that these factors compelled him to take this step.

Reasons for Departure

Lookman indicated that he believes it is time for him to explore new opportunities and adventures in his career. According to his statement, there was previously mutual agreement between him and the club’s management that a transfer would be beneficial, contingent upon receiving a reasonable offer.

However, despite a proposal arriving that matched his expectations, he is frustrated that Atalanta has chosen to block the move for reasons he finds unclear. Lookman emphasized that he feels he must advocate for his rights and stand up for what he believes is just in this situation.

“I must advocate for my rights and stand up for what I believe is just in this situation.”
