Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman has been shortlisted for the Serie A Forward of the Year award.

The 27-year-old was nominated alongside Lautaro Martinez, Marcus Thuram, and Rafael Leao for the prestigious Gran Gala del Calcio Awards.

Lookman's Atalanta coach, Gian Piero Gasperini, has also been shortlisted for the Coach of the Year award.

The Super Eagles forward has maintained his brilliant form from last season in the current campaign, registering eight goals and five assists in 14 appearances across all competitions.

The former Leicester City loanee also recorded 17 goals and 10 assists for La Dea last season, guiding them to their first Europa League title with a remarkable hat-trick in the final against Bayer Leverkusen.

Lookman's excellent form earned him a 14th-place ranking at the 2024 Ballon d'Or ceremony last month.
