Super Eagles winger Ademola Lookman has made the 30-man shortlist of nominees for the 2024 Ballon d’Or award.
Lookman has been selected among world-class players like Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr in a list unveiled by the organisers on Wednesday.
The Atalanta forward made headlines around the world after he scored a remarkable hat-trick as the Serie A side beat Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 in the Europa League final.
Lookman also shone for the Super Eagles at the AFCON earlier this year, scoring three goals as Nigeria finished runners-up behind hosts Ivory Coast.
Last year, his international teammate Victor Osimhen finished in 8th place in the Ballon d’Or final rankings.
Lookman was linked with Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain this summer but ended up staying with Atalanta.
