What was said about Ademola Lookman?
“Lookman played perhaps the best game of the season and also one of the best considering last year,” Piero Gasperini said, as per Calciomercato.
“He had many dangerous situations, and I see him growing, but I don’t know if he can repeat last year’s goals. Lookman is important. If we always scored goals in the first half, little or nothing would be missing.”
Also, Gasperini, pointed out the need for some players Scamacca, Holm and De Ketelaere to enhance and improve on their skills.
