Atalanta want away striker Ademola Lookman has arrived London after handing a transfer request to his Italian club.
Lookman suddenly left Bergamo with permision after Atalanta refused to accept a €45m bid from Inter. He was reported to have flown into London from Portugal where he has been holiday as he waits for the Inter move to materialise.
Lookman is said to be training by himself to keep in shape during pre-season. He had already started pre-season training on July 15 with a calf problem and therefore did not participate in any matches under new coach Ivan Juric.
Accordingly, Sky reports, the player would likely hope to be back to his best for after the September international break.
Lookman...last roll of the dice
