Atalanta boss Gian Piero Gasperini was counting on the 26-year-old to continue with his fine form this season. However, his hopes have been dealt a devastating blow after Lookman, according to Football Italia, asked not to be called up for their 2024/25 Serie A opening game against Lecce on Monday.
The decision has seen Liverpool and Arsenal try to make last-minute efforts to sign the forward.
Meanwhile, a UK outlet, TBR Football, has included Manchester City among the clubs interested in the talented forward before the close of the transfer window.
Lookman left Everton for £23m in 2019 to join German Bundesliga side RB Leipzig.
However, the latest reports are now suggesting that he could be set for a return to England, with Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City all vying for his signature.
