Ademola Lookman Stays Silent on Premier League Return Rumors
Ademola Lookman is keeping his future plans under wraps, despite growing speculation that he could be making a return to the English Premier League.
The 27-year-old winger, currently thriving at Serie A side Atalanta, remains focused on his present achievements rather than entertaining transfer rumors.
Lookman, who began his professional career with Charlton Athletic, is no stranger to English football.
He has had spells with Premier League clubs such as Everton, Fulham, and Leicester City.
Although his time in the Premier League was marked by moments of promise, it wasn’t until his move to Atalanta in 2022 from RB Leipzig that he truly began to flourish.
Under Gian Piero Gasperini’s management, Lookman has found consistency, sharpening his skills and becoming a key player for the Italian club.
In an interview with Sporty TV, Lookman reflected on his personal and professional growth since moving to Italy.
“As a person, I’ve grown and matured a lot here.
I’ve achieved things I’m proud of, and that’s because I’ve developed a clear process in terms of my work ethic, mindset, and the areas of my life that needed improvement,” he said.
Indeed, his time at Atalanta has seen him score crucial goals, including standout performances in both Serie A and European competitions.
His contributions helped Atalanta secure UEFA Europa League glory in 2024, where his hat-trick against Bayer Leverkusen in the final cemented his status as a top performer.
However, Lookman remains non-committal about what comes next.
“It’s all about who I’m becoming today. I’m pleased with my progress, and wherever the future takes me, we’ll see,” he added.
Ghanaian Referee, Daniel Laryea, who officiated the Nigeria vs Morocco game in AFCON gets interviews and shared his experience.
The referee reveals how it was his first time in a semi final and was kind of nervous. “I’ve been to three AFCON tournaments, but this is the first time I’ve been in a semi-final.”
“So when coaches choose you for that game, they know your skills and what you can do. But of course, you feel a little nervous because of the level of the match.”
Nigerian Footballer, Bright Osayi-Samuel , react to match as Super Eagles lose to Morocco.
The player calls out CAF for their referee appointment. He shares how the Ghanaian Referee was tough on the field and made bad choices.
“One thing I would say is that the referee was really bad. I’m not saying that was the reason we lost. He is making really bad choices and it’s really tough to watch because we have referees like this in big games like today.
He then praises Morocco for a good game “But Morocco did really well.”
Super Eagles Coach, Eric Chelle speaks and shared why Nigeria lost the AFCON match to Morocco.
It can be noted that the match was held on the 14th of January, 2026. Nigeria lost the match with a draft in the penalties, 4-2.
During a recent interview, Chelle shared his observations about the match and shared why they lost.
“From a technical point of view, the Super Eagles weren’t at the same level as we displayed in our other matches.”
“I don’t want to say the reason was fatigue, but the truth is that we lacked movement and power.”
