November 02, (THEWILL) – Two Super Eagles strikers, Victor Osimhen of Napoli and Ademola Lookman of Atalanta, are among five Serie A Player of the Month nominees, which EA Sports released on Wednesday.
Victor Osimhen is a deserving favourite for the monthly award after scoring 5 goals in just three outings for Luciano Spaletti’s team, the current league leaders, in October, including his hat-trick over the weekend against Sassuolo.
On the other hand, since joining Mario Gasperini’s squad in July, Ademola Loookman has been a revelation with five goals in 12 Serie A games for Atalanta this season, four of which came in his final five games for the Italians in the month of October.
The other nominees are Inter Milan forward, Nicolo Barella, Lazio midfielder, Sergej Milinkovic Savic, and AC Milan forward, Rafa Leao. However, the Nigerians have fared better than these challengers in October, contributing the most goals.
Fans wishing to participate in the process of determining the winner can visit the official EA Sports website and cast their vote for the player they believe deserves to be crowned the Serie A Player of the Month.
