After months of looking for a way out of Atalanta Bergamo, Ademola Lookman finally left Italy this winter. Close to signing for Fenerbahce, the Nigerian striker finally joined Atletico de Madrid after his very good CAN with the Super Eagles (4 goals, 4 assists in 6 matches). Obviously satisfied to take a step in his career at 28, the former Fulham spoke for the first time within his new club this Tuesday:

I am aware of the fervor of Atletico Madrid supporters towards the club, the players and the team. They are always there to support the team every game, it’s exceptional.» You will have understood, the native of London seems impatient to make his debut in Madrid. It could even be this Thursday during the Copa del Rey match against Betis.
