Atalanta Hopeful On UCL Qualification — Lookman

Forward Ademola Lookman insisted that Atalanta will keep pushing hard to qualify for the UEFA Champions League.

La Dea currently occupy sixth position on the Serie A table following Sunday night’s 2-0 home win against Empoli.

Five teams will represent Italy in Europe next season.

AS Roma sit in fifth position on the table and have played one game more than Gian Piero Gasperini’s side.

Lookman stated that Atalanta’s are desperate to play in the Champions League next year.

“This victory(against Empoli) is very important because we have to reach the Champions League. We also have commitments in the Italian Cup and the Europa League, winning today was important,” he said.

“Roma are a strong team but so are we. We know that every match is difficult but we are ready to try to win them all.”
