Atalanta winger Ademola Lookman has been nominated for Serie A Player of the Month for November, joining a strong list of contenders following a productive spell for the Bergamo club this season.
Softfootball understands that Lookman is up against Inter Milan’s Federico Dimarco, Juventus midfielder Khephren Thuram, Napoli’s Alessandro Buongiorno, Fiorentina forward Moise Kean and Lazio’s Mattia Zaccagni for the individual accolade this month.
Lookman opened November in style, scoring a brace in Atalanta’s emphatic 3-0 win over Napoli at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, a result that turned plenty of heads across Italian football.
He backed that up with another goal in Gian Piero Gasperini’s side’s 3-0 victory over Parma the following weekend.
The Nigeria international has now registered nine goals and five assists in 15 appearances across all competitions for Atalanta this season, numbers that reflect his growing influence on the team’s attacking play.
Fans have been given the chance to vote for their favourite goal of the month on EA Sports as part of the nomination process.
