Super Eagles forward Ademola Lookman has selected the No. 22 shirt following his move to Spanish giants Atletico Madrid.

 

The Nigeria international, who recently joined the La Liga side from Atalanta, was unveiled with the No. 22 jersey as he begins a new chapter of his career in Spain. The shirt choice marks a fresh start for the 28-year-old attacker as he looks to make an immediate impact under Diego Simeone.

 

Lookman arrives at Atletico on the back of an outstanding spell in Italy, where he established himself as one of Europe’s most effective forwards. Known for his pace, direct running and clinical finishing, the Super Eagles star is expected to add attacking depth and versatility to Atletico’s squad as they compete on multiple fronts this season.

 

The No. 22 shirt has previously been worn by several notable players at the club, and Lookman will be hoping to create his own legacy in the famous red-and-white colours.

 

Atletico Madrid fans have already expressed excitement over the arrival of the African Footballer of the Year, with expectations high that Lookman’s quality and experience will strengthen the club’s push in both domestic and European competitions.
