Lookman Joins Fulham On Loan From Leipzig

By Sampson Adedeji

Fulham have confirmed the signing of Nigeria-born former Everton winger, Ademola Lookman, on loan from RB Leipzig, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The 22-year-old made the move to Germany following a successful loan with Leipzig during the 2017/18 season. During that period he scored five goals and registered three assists in 11 appearances.

He then returned to Everton the following season, but could not replicate that form he showed with the German side.

As a result, he returned to Leipzig on a permanent deal last season.

Speaking to the official Fulham website, Lookman said: “I’m glad to have it over the line and done now. I’m glad I can be here to help the team."

"After the conversations I had with Scott Parker, I got a great feeling, that’s the working relationship I want to have. He’s young and hungry and I’m young and hungry as well so it’s a good match," he said.
