Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi has addressed growing speculation surrounding Ademola Lookman's future, revealing that a long-standing agreement was made with the player last year following a major bid from Paris Saint-Germain.

The club turned down a €20 million offer at the time, promising the winger a potential move in 2025 — but only to a top club outside Italy.

Speaking to the media, Percassi explained: "We made a pact with Lookman a year ago when we rejected PSG's offer. We told him we'd open the door in 2025, but only for a super top club and not within Serie A."

The comments come amid reports of interest from Inter Milan, but Atalanta are making it clear they remain in control of the situation. "Things are different now," Percassi added, "and as always, the decision lies with us."

With Lookman's stock rising, the club appear intent on sticking to the original terms of their agreement.
