Inter Milan have received Atalanta's response to their second offer for forward Ademola Lookman. And it was not the one that they were hoping for.
La Dea have rejected the Nerazzurri's offer of €45 million including add-ons. That is up from the €40 million bid that Inter had made a couple of weeks ago.
This has left Inter frustrated. And it has also drawn the ire of Lookman himself, who has scrubbed mention of Atalanta from his Instagram account.
Ademola Lookman Out Of Atalanta Squad Vs RB Leipzig

In the meantime, Ademola Lookman is not in the Atalanta squad that travelled to Germany this week.
New La Dea coach Ivan Juric is leading the team out in a friendly match against RB Leipzig.
However, Lookman is not part of the squad available to the Croatian tactician.
However, this is not the result of Lookman being imminently up for sale.
Rather, the 27-year-old is still recovering from a calf issue according to reports.

Rockies closer Seth Halvorsen placed on injured list with an elbow strain
DENVER (AP) — The Colorado Rockies have put closer Seth Halvorsen on the 15-day injured list with a right elbow strain after he had to leave Saturday's win over Pittsburgh. Interim manager Warren Schaeffer said at the time the injury didn't look good — after the right-hander left after throwing five pitches in the ninth inning. Halvorsen leads the Rockies with 11 saves. Colorado also recalled right-hander Nick Anderson and catcher Braxton Fulford from Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday, and the Rockies optioned infielder Michael Toglia to Albuquerque. The 25-year-old Halvorsen is 1-2 with a 4.99 ERA this year. He made his big league debut in August of 2024. ___ AP MLB:

Despondent Hamilton and Ferrari crash back to earth
Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari crashed back to earth on Sunday when 24 hours after Charles Leclerc claimed the team's first pole of 2025 they left Hungary frustrated and dejected. Seven-time world champion Hamilton, who on Saturday said he was "completely useless" to the team and ready to be replaced, wound up 12th while Leclerc dropped from race leader to a grumbling fourth. Hamilton, backed beforehand by team boss Fred Vasseur, was in a bleak mood suggesting that he remained trapped by a crisis of confidence that has turned his spectacular marquee signing for Ferrari into a nightmare. "When you have a feeling, you have a feeling," he said enigmatically, responding to a question about his comment suggesting that he was no longer good enough for Ferrari and should be replaced. He added: "There's a lot going on in the background that isn't great." Asked if he still loved racing, he replied to say he did, but with little conviction. Leclerc appeared to be little happier after he had failed to convert pole into victory for the 15th time in 16 attempts during the last three years. His one success came in last year's Monaco Grand Prix, his home event. "We lost a podium, so I am very disappointed," said Leclerc, having warned the team during the race that they had bungled his car's set-up in some unspecified way. "But I spoke too quickly because being out of the car, I had a bit more detail about what went on," he added later. "I thought it was about something else that we had discussed, but unfortunately it was on the chassis. "There was an issue on that side and we will look into it for it not to happen again. It doesn't really make me feel any better because when you're fighting for a win, and then you have these kind of issues, it never happens. "We need to look into it to make sure it never happens again because the car was just undriveable. "It was around lap 40 because as soon as I started to struggle and to complain, it was basically when we started to have the issue and it got worse and worse. "It's very frustrating to have everything under control, to know that the pace is in the car to win, and then you end up being nowhere. We lost a podium.' Hamilton, 40, winner of a record eight Hungarian Grands Prix and a record nine poles at the circuit, finished where he started and with his worst result at the circuit, inevitably sparking talk of his possible retirement. But as he headed off towards a summer break, he could look at the joy in the Aston Martin garage where, despite a back muscle injury, his one-time McLaren team-mate Fernando Alonso had finished a season's best fifth, aged 44. str/nr

Veteran Howson OK with Boro promotion 'failure'
Jonny Howson said he has no regrets at his failure to take Middlesbrough back into the Premier League. The midfielder left Boro last month after eight years on Teesside in which he played 341 games for the club, scoring 10 goals. The 37-year-old arrived at the Riverside from Norwich City in 2017 just after Boro had been relegated from the top flight but he was never part of a promotion campaign. "For why I came to this club, it was to gain promotion and go back and play in the Premier League with a terrific, well-supported club," he told BBC Radio Tees. "If you're basing it on that, I have failed, and I'm fine with that because I've given it everything I've got." 'I've had life moments here' Howson played under six permanent bosses at Middlesbrough and helped his team reach the play-offs on two occasions, although they lost in the semi-finals in both 2018 and 2023. He was part of the side that enjoyed memorable FA Cup successes over Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur in the 2021-22 season, and a Carabao Cup semi-final win over Chelsea in the first leg in January 2024, before the second leg ended in a heavy defeat. And the Middlesbrough supporters showed what they thought of Howson's efforts in the pre-season friendly at Rangers as a banner in the away end at Ibrox read: '8 years of loyalty and leadership. Thank you Jonny.' "I probably never thought I'd have eight goes at it, so that's a success in itself," Howson said. "I can look back at my time and be proud because we've created other memories. "Sometimes in life you don't get maybe what you deserve or what you want, but I've got no problem with that. "Look at the other stuff I've created, the people I've met. Promotion and playing in the Premier League is a football thing, but I've had life moments here, which are bigger than that."
