Nigerian international Ademola Lookman could get his hands on his first trophy in his club career when Atalanta takes on Juventus in the Coppa Italia final on Wednesday, May 15.

The 26-year-old, who joined La Dea from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2022, will also be playing in his first final in his club career.

The ex-Leicester City loanee made two appearances in the competition, contributing a goal and an assist for Gian Piero Gasperini's side.

The Super Eagles star has also managed 12 goals and 8 assists in 41 appearances across all competitions for Atalanta this season.

La Dea has won the Coppa Italia only once, during the 1962/63 season. The club has, however, finished as runners-up on four occasions.

The final will be held at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
