Lookman makes Serie A team of the month for September
Three games, two goals, one assist, one aerial battle won and one man of the match award were enough to convince Whoscored.com, the largest detailed football statistics website powered by Opta data to pick Atalanta winger cum striker, Ademola Lookman as one of the best 11 players in the Serie A for the month of September.
The Nigerian, 26, provided an assist and scored the winner for Atalanta in the 3-2 defeat of Fiorentina just after the international break in his first Serie A game of the season.
He was on song again when Como came visiting at the Gewiss stadium nine days later, scoring his club’s second goal on 99th minute in a 3-2 loss to the Serie A newcomers.
Lookman, Atalanta’s hat-trick hero in the Europa League final last season, got Whoscored’s fourth highest rating (7.63) and is in a three-man midfield in a 4-3-3 formation.
The Atalanta star is the third Nigerian player that will make the team of the month in three of Europe’s top five leagues.
Wilfred Ndidi has been in the Premier League team of the month while Moses Simon made the Ligue 1 team of the month list.
