lookman and gasperini bury the hatchet as atalanta star continues to shine

Reigning African Footballer of the Year Ademola Lookman has put the penalty fallout between himself and Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini to bed as he continues his scintillating form for La Dea.

The Nigerian forward continued his impressive scoring streak, netting his sixth goal in seven games as he capped off Atalantas stunning 4-0 away victory over Juventus, a result that sent shockwaves through the Italian football scene.

Despite having a very public fallout with his coach Gaseperini, Lookman hasnt missed a beat since his high profile penalty miss against Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League.

Gasperini described Lookman as one of the worst penalty takers Ive ever seen, and Lookman labelled the coachs criticism as deeply disrespectful.

Lookman has consistently delivered strong performances, scoring twice against Empoli and then impressing against Juventus. This has propelled him to third in the Serie A scoring rankings.
