Atalanta star Ademola Lookman will miss Wednesday's Champions League clash with Barcelona due to a right knee injury sustained in training on Monday.
The player, who won the African Ballon d'Or in December, will not travel with Gian Piero Gasperini's side for the final round of the league phase, with Barcelona already assured of a place in the last 16 while 'La Dea' need at least a draw to avoid the play-offs.
Lookman felt some discomfort in his right knee during Monday's training session at Zingonia, the club's sports centre, which, although not yet classified as a specific injury pending tests, will keep him out of the important clash on Montjuïc.
Lookman's absence adds to the long-term absences of Ivorian centre-back Odilon Kossounou and Italian striker Gianluca Scamacca.
