Ademola Lookman, the talented winger for Atalanta and a standout player for the Nigerian national team, has shared the names of his closest friends within the Super Eagles squad.

In a remarkable year for the 27-year-old, Lookman was recently crowned the CAF Player of the Year for 2024, solidifying his reputation as one of Africa’s top football talents.

This recognition caps off a stellar period in his career, which saw him become a key figure for Nigeria on the international stage.

Though Lookman only began his journey with the Super Eagles in 2021 following FIFA’s approval of his international switch from England, he has quickly made his mark.

Lookman played an instrumental role in Nigeria’s impressive run during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations held earlier this year.

He followed that up with a match-winning goal against Angola in the quarter-finals, further cementing his status as one of the team’s go-to players in critical moments.

Despite falling short in the final, Lookman’s contributions were pivotal in propelling the team to such heights.

When asked about his close relationships within the Super Eagles, Lookman revealed that he shares a strong bond with a select group of players, referring to them as the “innit boys,” a nod to their shared British-Nigerian backgrounds.

He specifically mentioned Joe Aribo, a versatile midfielder currently playing for Southampton, and Calvin Bassey, a dynamic defender who made waves with his transfer to Fulham.
