Ballon d’Or: I Would Vote For Ademola Lookman – Atalanta Coach, Gasperini Says

Gian Piero Gaseperini, the Atalanta manager, has said his Ballon d’Or vote would go to Ademola Lookman.

Lookman is the only African player nominated for the award this year.

The Super Eagles wrote his name in history books, after he scored a hat-trick against Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League final.

Gasperini has now said that feat is enough for him to vote Lookman.

He told Sky: “My personal Ballon d’Or vote would go to Ademola Lookman.

“His magic skills helped us to win the Europa League.”

The winner of the 2024 Ballon d’Or will be announced on October 28.
