Lookman began his career in south-east London before moving to Everton in January 2017, where he marked his debut from the bench with the final goal in the Toffees’ 4-0 victory against Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.<\/a><\/p>\n That would be his only Premier League goal for the club as he was restricted to just seven league starts in two seasons at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n A six-month loan spell at RB Leipzig followed, with a permanent move to the Red Bull Arena coming a year later in 2019.<\/p>\n After just one Bundesliga start and no league goals, Lookman was loaned out again and returned to London with Fulham.<\/p>\n He scored four times for the Cottagers as they were relegated from the Premier League under Scott Parker and spent the 2021-22 season on loan with Leicester City, scoring eight goals in all competitions as the Foxes finished eighth in the top flight.<\/p>\n Across five and a half seasons he started 62 of his 118 league appearances. Remove his spell from Fulham and that becomes 31 starts in 84.<\/p>\n Since moving to Atalanta in 2022, he has played 76 matches and started 52 of them.<\/p>\n “He’s been playing at that elite level but the difference here is that he’s playing at a club that clearly has some belief to continue to work with him and develop him, and for him to strike up a relationship with them as well,” Avery said.<\/p>\n “Now he has fully established himself at that club, in that league, and he as put himself right up there now in terms of his European achievements.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
