Atalanta coach Ivan Juric confirmed that Demola Lookman will not be part of the group to face Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes in the Champions League, even though he is registered on the UEFA list: “It will be a great joy to face PSG, the strongest team in the world today. You will have to be perfect, hoping that they are not at their best. We are confident in our capacities. It will also be a great joy for me, my first participation in the Champions League ”he said after the meeting won against Lecce (4-1).

Asked about the absence of the Nigerian winger, the Croatian technician cut short: “Lookman in Paris? I don't think, the situation is unpleasant and not good. He gave so much to Atalanta, and the Atalanta gave him so much. We need ready players, who want to progress and persevere. We'll see». As a reminder, Lookman had already experienced tensions this summer with his management about the transfer window with this aborted departure from Inter Milan, a clash which seems to continue to weigh on its current situation, while the Nigerian international still does not want to resume the path of training.
