The nominees for the 2024 Ballon d’Or have been announced. Ademola Lookman is the only African player to be shortlisted this year for the prestigious award.
Lookman’s impressive performances in the Serie A with Atalanta, his historic hat trick in the UEFA Europa League final and the 2023 AFCON have made him a strong contender for the award.
Ademola Lookman’s Ballon d’Or nomination has fueled hopes that he’ll succeed Victor Osimhen as African Footballer of the Year, building on his impressive international performances.
