Atlético Madrid have just pulled off what might be the "steal of the century," securing Nigerian superstar Ademola Lookman for a cool £30.3 million. In this episode, we break down the arrival of the man who made history with a Europa League final hat-trick and became the first English-born player to grace all four of Europe's major leagues.
From his "incisive adrenaline" on the wing to his ruthless output of 55 goals in Italy, Lookman is the perfect fusion of Simeone-style grit and elite technical guile. We discuss how he fits into the red and white stripes, his journey from London to Bergamo to the Metropolitano, and why his Ballon d'Or-shortlisted talent is exactly what Atleti needs to ignite their title charge.
