Lookman, who also won the award for the 2022/23 season, had an impressive campaign, scoring 11 goals and providing eight assists in 31 appearances for La Dea last season.

Lookman, former Everton star also played a crucial role in Atalanta’s UEFA Europa League triumph, scoring a hat-trick in the final against Bayer Leverkusen, leading the team to a 3-0 victory.

“It’s him again, Ademola Lookman! The reigning champion defends his title and is crowned straight-A student for the second year in a row after staving off an unsparing competition, to the point of both bringing the contest to an overtime runoff and stepping the posedown up to the Instagram profile after the regular session ended in a tie,” a club statement reads.
