He is irreplaceable — Atalanta boss Gasperini makes Ademola Lookman admission

Atalanta boss Gian Piero Gasperini has revealed that there is no replacement for Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman.

Ademola Lookman has received high praise following his impressive performance in Atalanta’s 5-0 win over Sturm Graz in the UEFA Champions League.

Lookman, who came on at halftime, scored the team’s fourth goal in the 90th minute, taking his goal tally for the season to 14 in 26 games across all competitions.
