"I was there the last time Lookman missed a penalty in the Premier League for Fulham - his boss back then protected him as Gasperini should have done."

Atalanta striker Ademola Lookman said his coach Gian Piero Gasperini's comments describing him as "one of the worst penalty takers" he had ever seen after Tuesday's Champions League exit were "deeply disrespectful" and hurtful.

Ademola Lookman was criticised for his spot-kick miss in Atalanta's loss to Club Brugge as head coach Piero Gasperini labelled the star as the worst penalty-taker.
