Former Nigerian international Mutiu Adepoju believes Super Eagles winger Ademola Lookman has taken the bold step to join Spanish club Atletico Madrid.
Recall that on Monday, the club officially announced the signing of the Nigerian international via their website.
The Nigerian winger, who scored a hat-trick in Atalanta’s 2024 Europa League final win over Bayer Leverkusen, has scored three goals in 19 appearances across all competitions for the Italian side this season.
Speaking with Footy Africa, Adepoju stated that he’s delighted with Lookman’s move to Atletico Madrid.

“I think it’s a very bold move and I really, really love it,” Adepoju said. “I think he’s going to a place where he is going to show his quality and everything that Ademola Lookman is about. I am very sure he is going to have a lot of support from Atletico Madrid.”
“They are one of the biggest clubs in Spain and everybody knows the history of Ademola Lookman. He is a very good addition to the team and I think Lookman is going to have a great year at Atletico Madrid and in La Liga.
“I really love the move and I wish him all the best because I know he is a great guy and he deserves to be happy. I am very sure he is going to be happy because he is a great guy and a great footballer too,” he added.
Atletico will be hoping the Nigerian’s pace and finishing can fire their campaign as they prepare for a two-legged Champions League knockout play-off against Club Brugge later this month.

Mo Post my guy, too much quarrel no dey full teacup o! 🙂

Why are you so vindictive? Who did this to you?
Hehehehe…..You know, Victor Boniface granted an interview recently where he stated that most of those who insult him on social media the most are people who have been begging him for money, but whom he refused to give a dime.
So when you see dogs barking at Osimhen in this manner, just know they are doing so from a place of pain and humiliation……..LMAOooo.
They claim that Osimhen is driven by money, but their brain is too weak to recall that he twice rejected double what he earns now from Al Hilal……LMAOooo.
Life is so hard for a street dog it can’t quietly deal with the fact that someone can be talking home €400k every Friday yet retains his status as one of the most feared and respected centre forwards in Europe while about to become Nigeria’s deadliest striker of all time, all while playing stress less football in a tolotolo league……. LMAOOo.
That look on Lookman’s face. That is the KILLER LOOK.
La Liga clubs, beware! Lookman has come to town, and he is LOOKING for goals!
