Ademola Lookman will miss Atalanta’s Champions League clash at Barcelona, the Serie A club said today, after the Nigerian star suffered a knee injury in training.

In a short statement, Atalanta said the 27-year-old forward had hurt the lateral joint in his right knee and would not travel to Spain where on Wednesday the Italians are aiming to secure direct qualification for the last 16 of the Champions League.

Atalanta did not say how long Lookman would be out but Italian media report he could be sidelined for up to a month.

Lookman will be a huge loss for Atalanta as he has scored 14 goals and set up six more this season.
