Super Eagles in Serie A: Can Osimhen be dethroned by Chukwueze or Lookman?
The arrival of Samuel Chukwueze to compete with Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman in Serie A adds to the Nigerian interest in Italy’s top division. The trio should challenge for the European spots, leaving fans on the edge of their seats in 2023-24.
How it happened
Although it was a dominant performance by the hosts, one player stood out: Scamacca, who has returned to Serie A after a difficult time in England.
Atalanta were shocked last week against newly promoted Frosinone and needed a win to head into the international break.
The games started slowly but soon burst into life, with both teams getting chances to score. The hosts soon went ahead when Charles de Ketelaere, who was preferred on the day to Ademola Lookman, found Ederson. The Brazilian midfielder, in turn, fired the Gers into the lead in the 35th minute.
