Jose Peseiro credits Atalanta Coach Gasperini for CAF player of the year Ademola Lookman’s Impressive Form

Former Super Eagles head coach Jose Peseiro has praised Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini, saying he is responsible for Ademola Lookmans impressive form. Lookman has been in fantastic form for both club and country this year . The 27-year-old was one of the top performers for Nigeria at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations earlier in the year and contributed immensely to Atalantas UEFA Europa League success, scoring a hat-trick in the final victory over Bayer Leverkusen.Having worked with Lookman in the past during his time at the Super Eagles, Peseiro credits his coach at Atalanta for the players rise.I think giving Lookman the freedom to move around has allowed him to show his quality, both in terms of decision making and execution,Peseiro told Sportitalia. Of course the club and Gasperini have provided Lookman with the environment to grow as a player in all aspects. I think Lookmans victory is deserved given his performances both for Atalanta, his club, and for his country, Nigeria, he added. Lookman was crowned Africas Best Player at the 2024 CAF Awards in Marrakech, Morocco on Monday night. The post Jose Peseiro credits Atalanta Coach Gasperini for CAF player of the year Ademola Lookmans Impressive Form appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
