“Here, it’s incredible; I think Atalanta is a great club, a great club in Italy, and that they play a great attacking football that they like so much and lends themselves to my characteristics. It was a simple decision to make.”
” I would say that I am an explosive player, exciting; I like to score and assist.
“I like to create dangerous situations, for the rest I consider myself a chilled, relaxed guy.
“My desire here at Atalanta is to win as much as possible. I want to grow and do well, but at the same time, I want the team to grow also with my contribution because the value of the group is important.”
Lookman joined RB Leipzig from Everton in 2019 for around €17m, but failed to tie down a regular playing berth at the German club.
