Ademola Lookman Set for Atalanta’s Champions League Clash Against Club Brugge

Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman is likely to make Atalanta’s squad for their crucial UEFA Champions League playoff second leg against Club Brugge on Tuesday.

Lookman suffered a knee injury in training last month, forcing him to miss six consecutive games across all competitions. However, the 27-year-old participated in part of Sunday’s training session with the team, signaling a potential return.

Crucial Boost for Atalanta

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Lookman could be fit enough to feature in the must-win clash at the Gewiss Stadium as Gian Piero Gasperini’s side looks to overturn their 2-1 first-leg defeat to Brugge.

Lookman’s Impact This Season

Before his injury, Lookman had been in outstanding form, recording:
✅ 14 goals
✅ 7 assists
✅ 24 appearances across all competitions

His potential return could provide a major offensive boost as Atalanta aims to progress to the next stage of the Champions League.
