Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has been named Serie A Player of the Month for January after contributing five goals and an assist, but his peers picked Atalanta’s Ademola Lookman.

Nigeria international Osimhen is currently the Capocannoniere on 16 goals and one of the main reasons why the Partenopei are 13 points clear at the top of the table.

He will receive the EA Sports Player of the Month trophy before kick-off in Sunday’s match against Cremonese.

Osimhen topped the poll ahead of Paulo Dybala of Roma, Inter’s Lautaro Martinez, Atalanta winger Lookman and Lazio midfielder Luis Alberto.

The AIC Player of the Month award, voted for and handed out by the Italian Players’ Union, went to Lookman instead, who scored five goals and provided two assists for Atalanta in January.
