Former AC Milan midfielder Christian Brocchi believes Ademola Lookman can make the difference for Atalanta in Sunday’s Serie A clash against Juventus.
The reigning CAF Player of the Year has scored 12 goals for Atalanta in the league this season and is a major reason for their Serie A title charge.
La Dea are 3 points off the top spot, and victory against Juventus on Sunday night will see them continue their title charge as they engage in a three-horse race with Inter and Napoli.
Brocchi, who starred for Milan, and knows what it means to win Serie A, reckoned Lookman will be the key man for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side against the Bianconeri.
“At the moment, Lookman is Atalanta’s difference maker,” Brocchi told Serie A’s official website.
“He is fast, his final ball is good, and in 1-v-1s he can either finish himself or set up a teammate. He is a complete player, who breaks up the game.
“The Nigerian could be decisive, maybe with a goal, but also with his movement and his set-up play for Retegui.”
