Atalanta plan to take legal action and make Ademola Lookman pay for leaving Bergamo without the permission from the club.
Lookman suddenly disappeared after Atalanta rejected a bid from Inter Milan last week. His whereabout remains unknown.
According to reports by Football Italia, Atalanta owners the Percassi family have prepared legal action with a costly fine, as they consider Lookman’s conduct unacceptable, regardless of the reasoning behind it or what will happen over the next few days.
Inter have remained silent hoping that Atalanta will eventually agree to their 45 million euro bid.
Meanwhile Arsenal may offer an escape route for Lookman. The London club has been approached by Atalanta representatives according to transfer expert Nicolo Schira. Atalanta are more comfortable selling off Lookman to a club outside Italy.
But it remained to be seen if the Gunners who are eyeing Eberechi Eze will jump at the chance to sign the player.
