Ademola Lookman Might Miss Atalanta’s Match Against Roma Due to Achilles Injury
Ademola Lookman could miss Atalanta’s crucial Serie A clash against AS Roma due to an Achilles tendon issue. The winger reportedly skipped training on Friday after suffering inflammation in the area, raising concerns about his availability for Monday’s game at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo. With two days left before the match, the coaching staff will assess Lookman’s condition to determine if he can feature.
The Nigerian forward recently broke a six-game goal drought by finding the net in Atalanta’s 4-0 win over Monza last weekend. So far this season, he has scored 19 goals and provided seven assists across all competitions. Atalanta currently sit third on the Serie A table with 68 points, holding a five-point lead over fifth-placed Roma with just three matches remaining.
