Not that Tammy could win in his category, but he should definitely be nominated for the best striker of 2021-22.
He was turning heads in his first season in Serie A!
Lautaro Martinez shouldn’t be there he’s overrated. I’m a Milan fan but Tonali is also overrated ,although he did enough to deserve the nomination.

Edit – Best third-tier European club – roma.
Best striker – Dybala!?!?!?!

Edit – Best striker who had a poor season but is nominated now he is at the ‘best’ Serie A club who will win everything with their genius coach and best young Italian forward – Dybala.
