De Ketelaere-Lookman: The duo that brought quality back to Atalanta, by the numbers

Atalanta has rediscovered its quality thanks in part to the dynamic duo of Ademola Lookman and Charles De Ketelaere, Italian coach Gian Piero Gasperini indicates.

In a current setup where Lookman and De Ketelaere are the key drivers of Atalanta’s offensive play, their combined efforts have made a substantial impact with remarkable statistics. It is noted how effortlessly the duo, despite being young, find each other on the pitch, demonstrating their immense potential.

The numbers speak for themselves. Together, they have scored 10 goals and provided 7 assists, accounting for 42% of Atalanta’s total score in both the league and cup matches. Additionally, they boast 39 successful dribbles and 42 key passes, with De Ketelaere topping the list in the squad for creating big chances.

It is clear that Atalanta cannot overlook the significance of these two players. Their absence would cause a notable shortfall in the team’s performance. The undoubted quality that has been rediscovered in the squad can be attributed to their flourishing partnership. It remains to be seen how much more they can contribute to the team in the ongoing season.
