We all saw how Ademola Lookman single handlely won Atalanta the European Europa league competition against the best club in Europe last season( Bayern Leverkusen ). We shouldn't forget he scored three good goals in that game.
My pick as well and it shouldn't even be a debate but he lacks the PR, though Bayern Leverkusen weren't the best club last season. They only won their league and going undefeated but they didn't play other better clubs in Europe. If they did, they wouldn't have gone unbeaten for so long as they did. That's what exactly what happened when they met Atalanta.
I don't think Real Madrid even wants him to win it. The end goal might just be for him to make the cut for the list of nominees
They already have achieve that if that was their aim, Brahim Diaz Isn't even that player to use PR to win him the award. Assuming he was on Vini jnr level for Madrid without even doing anything in AFCON, it would have been his award to win.
Nothing beats Madrid PR.
