Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman is set to make his return for Atalanta in their UEFA Champions League knockout play-offs second leg against Club Brugge, Afrosport reports.
Lookman has been out of action for the past three weeks after sustaining a knee injury in training last month.
The 27-year-old has missed Atalanta’s last six games in all competitions, including their first-leg defeat to Club Brugge in Belgium.
The Nigeria international reportedly completed training with La Dea on Sunday and is in line to return to the team.

Atalanta lost the first leg 2-1 to Club Brugge last week, and the Serie A club will be hoping to overturn the deficit when they face off in the playoff second leg at Gewiss Stadium on Tuesday.
Lookman has scored 14 goals and provided seven assists in 27 matches across all competitions for Atalanta this season.
