Assist and goal in win Lookman scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and two chances created in Thursday's 3-0 victory versus Marseille.

These were only his second and third goal contributions in the competition this season, with his last coming nearly two months ago.

Impact Lookman was playing in high form Sunday, as he went on to notch two assists, first finding Charles De Ketelaere in the 44th minute before repeating the process with El Bilal Toure in the 72nd minute. This gave Lookman his sixth goal of the season, with his last coming just two appearances ago, now having 14 goal contributions this campaign.

Impact Lookman returned to the starting XI after coming off the bench during the previous match and was his team's most dangerous player up front, with an assist for Gianluca Scamacca to open the scoring in the 13th minute, many other dangerous plays and even some defensive contribution. That's now eight goals and four assists for the forward in his second campaign with Atalanta and, now that he's fully fit after recovering from the ankle injury suffered during AFCON, his contributions during the final stretch of the season would be very welcome for a side still fighting for European qualification.

APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE

Creates two chances versus Napoli Lookman won two duels and had one shot (one on goal), two successful take-ons and two chances created in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Napoli.

Impact Lookman was brought off the bench after international duties, and his output was paltry. Atalanta are using all their attackers since they advanced in every competition, so he's not a lock to be in the XI in each game. He has scored twice and posted nine shots (three on target), five chances created and 12 crosses (three accurate) in the last five matches (three starts).

MARCH 30 • ROTOWIRE

Scores against Bologna Lookman scored one goal to go with three shots (one on trget), four crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 2-1 defeat to Bologna.

Impact Lookman looked like his early-season self for the first time since returning from AFCON and hit the net with an opportunist finish, on top of pacing his side in attempts. He's poised to be a regular starter from here on out despite Atalanta's depth up front. He has posted three shots (one on target), three chances created and five crosses (one accurate) in the last three games.

MARCH 4 • ROTOWIRE

Silent in return versus Milan Lookman (ankle) had one chance created, one inaccurate cross, one interception and one tackle (one won) in 45 minutes in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Milan.

Impact Lookman came off the bench at intermission replacing Charles De Ketelaere but didn't fare much better than his teammate. He'll resume being a regular once fully healthy, eroding also Aleksey Miranchuk and Gianluca Scamacca's playing time. He has scored twice and logged one assist, 18 shots (eight on target) and 12 chances created in his last five showings.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Available for Sunday Lookman (ankle) is on the bench for Sunday's clash with AC Milan.

Impact Lookman is only starting on the bench after missing the last month and a half with an ankle injury. He's been having a great season for Atalanta, scoring seven goals with three assists in 18 appearances in Serie A, 15 of them coming as starts.

FEBRUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Will return versus Milan Lookman (ankle) "had a good practice Friday, the pain has subsided significantly, and he's ready for Sunday," coach Gian Piero Gasperini informed.

Impact Lookman isn't 100 percent following AFCON and an ankle injury but will resume being an option versus Milan. He'll likely come off the bench given the circumstances. His return will affect Gianluca Scamacca and Aleksey Miranchuk the most. He tallied seven goals and three assists in 18 Serie A appearances, adding 43 shots (17 on target) and 25 chances created.

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Will miss Sassuolo match Lookman won't play against Sassuolo on Saturday as he returned from AFCON with an ankle sprain, Sky Italy reported.

Impact Lookman reported back to his team late in the week and has been limited to some rehab work. The injury isn't believed to be serious, so he might recuperate for next week's clash with Milan. Atalanta will continue to roll with the attackers they have been using while he was away.

JANUARY 28 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Takes down Lecce before leaving Lookman scored one goal to go with two shots (two on target), six crosses (three accurate), five key passes, and four corners in Saturday's 1-0 win versus Lecce.

Impact Lookman was the most impactful attacker for Atalanta, paced his team in key passes, and decided the game with a surgical daisy-cutter from outside the box early in the second half for his seventh goal in the season. He has been called up by Nigeria for AFCON, so he'll miss at least the next three games, and potentially longer depending on how his team fares. Charles De Ketelaere, Luis Muriel, and Aleksey Miranchuk will pick up the slack.

Fires seven shots Lookman took seven off target shots, crossed once inaccurately and created a chance during Saturday's match against Bologna.

Provides assist in Salernitana game Lookman assisted once to go with four shots (three on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Monday's 4-1 win against Salernitana.

Impact Lookman was a tad wasteful as he had a few opportunities to fire from good spots, but he partially made up for it with a quality pass for Mario Pasalic ahead of the second goal for his team. He has scored three times and added 12 shots (seven on target), eight chances created, and 11 crosses (four accurate) in his last five appearances. Atalanta will face Bologna away Saturday.

DECEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rested in Europa League Lookman has been omitted from Atalanta's squad list to face Rakow on Thursday.

Impact Lookman will get the day off in a rather meaningless fixture. Charles De Ketelaere, Luis Muriel, and Aleksej Miranchuk will lead the frontline midweek.

He's their main scoring threat without Gianluca Scamacca. He has hit the net three times and logged eight shots (four on target), six chances created, and nine crosses (four accurate) in the last four matches. Atalanta will visit Rakow in the Europa League on Thursday and then host Salernitana next Monday.
