Lookman is one of the most in-form wingers in Europe and is the favourite to be crowned CAF Player of the Year.

In an interview with Radio Marte, Inácio praised Lookman saying:

"Between Ademola Lookman and Kvaratskhelia, I personally like the Nigerian better.

"He can play outside and inside the field, whereas the Georgian is only devastating on the wing."

"Lookman can also play as a second striker: I prefer versatile players.”

Lookman's impressive performances for Atalanta and Nigeria have made him a standout player across Europe, and a name to watch out for when the transfer window opens in January.
