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.

Football legend Thierry Henry has reacted to Lionel Messi’s emotional response after Argentina lost the 2026 FIFA World Cup final to Spain.
It can be recalled that Spain defeated Argentina to lift the 2026 World Cup trophy. While Spain celebrated their victory, cameras captured Messi in tears after the final whistle.
Henry said Messi’s reaction showed just how much the game still means to him.
“Look at what it means to him. If you ever had any doubt about whether the guy still has any fire in his belly, look at him. Look at what it means.”
He added “You won already. And look at the guy. Look at the passion, desire and the love that he has for his country and how much he puts into it.”
Football legend Rio Ferdinand has shared his prediction ahead of the FIFA World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
While many have backed different teams to lift the trophy, Ferdinand said some fans have underestimated Argentina’s quality.
He said “I find it difficult to bet against Argentina. They have demonstrated remarkable character, determination, and resilience. I believe people have been somewhat disrespectful by calling them an average team; they are not.”
He continued “I think it is inappropriate and disrespectful. If you are saying that, you clearly do not watch enough football, as they are an excellent team, and in challenging situations, they become even better and stronger. However, I do believe Spain will win the match.”
