Ademola Lookman suffers knee injury ahead of Barcalona clash

Ademola Lookman has been ruled out of Atalanta’s UEFA Champions League clash with Barcelona. Lookman sustained a knee injury in Atalanta’s Serie A clash against Como last weekend.

The Nigeria international is expected to be sidelined for a number of weeks. The winger’s return date will be determined after more tests in the upcoming days.

Lookman was on target in La Dea’s 5-0 rout of Sturm Graz last week. He has scored four goals and provided two assists in six appearances in the competition this season.

Atalanta will be away to Barcelona at the Nou Camp on Wednesday.

The 27-year-old footballer has been instrumental for Atalanta this season, contributing significantly to their attacking prowess.
