Ademola Lookman made a dream start to his career with Serie A club Atalanta netting in the club’s 2- 0 away win at Sampdoria.
Lookman took the place of Luis Muriel in the 63rd minute of the keenly contested encounter.
Rafael Toloi opened scoring for Atalanta in the 26th minute after he was teed up by Mario Pasalic.
Lookman make the points save in added time following a pass from Ruslab Malinovskyi.
Atalanta will host champions AC Milan in their next league game.
At the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, Isaac Success was in action as Udinese fall to a 4-2 defeat to champions AC Milan.
Success was replaced by Beto in the 67th minute.

All what we SE fans ask of is for SE player’s name to be hitting the headlines in Top European leagues week in week out…….Is that too much to ask of?……we are tired of players that only get their names mentioned when national team list in released.
Buh we hadd never stopped hearing their names, we have being hearing them for awhile now, the next thing is for them to start changing level. I want to hear things like chukwueze has moved to Liverpool or atletico Madrid, Sadiq to vilarael or dortmund Ndidi to man u, Simon to arsenal or even team like Leicester, Dessers to Ajax etc, not one club or the other are eyeing or nosing one player or the other. The moves by Nigeria players that I love so far are those of Aribo, Bassey, lookman. And if dortmund or villarael eventually sign Sadiq. I really appreciate that Osimhen is staying one more season at Napoli, seeing 5hat he’s still has a lot to learn and scoring more goals this season will make every club want to splash any amount on him, moreover hopefully he will be taking his club’s spot kick now.
Leave the players already playing in Top 5 leagues and concentrate your anger on the ones playing in Division 2, turkey, Cyprus,Malta,south Africa, and are laying claim to their first eleven in the national team at all times……The ones already playing in top5 leagues still have a hope of moving to the big clubs you mentioned if they distinguish themselves in the league they presently play……But the ones in mushroom leagues are hopeless because you don’t expect big clubs you mentioned to go to those leagues to sign players like that!…… please let’s understand the point here…… beating around the bush has never helped us as country and it won’t help us now.
How many Egyptian players are playing in top 5 leagues and they qualified for the final of afcon. They have won record number of afcon. Sometimes we oberflog this too 5 leagues thing. A player may even be in too 5 and may not fit into coach plan
21 yr old Atalanta center back Caleb Okoli.
Italy born.
Nigeria prospect?
That’s my boy right there, surprise why Rodger didn’t go all out to make his loan move permanent for plus letting the keeper leave the club for NICE, this new keeper WARD or what’s his name not good enough.
