Lookman has continued to impress for Atalanta following an impressive debut campaign last term.

The 26-year-old is La Dea’s joint top scorer this season with eight goals from 22 games.

The winger has also registered three assists.

The previous league fixture between both clubs saw Napoli come out on top 2-1, with Lookman scoring the only goal for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side, while Osimhen assisted a late winner for Napoli.
