The chief coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Emmanuel Amuneke has explained what new acquisition Ademola Lookman will add to the frontline of the senior national team of Nigeria.
Lookman completed the process for his switch of nationality from England to Nigeria putting himself in pole position to be called up for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers playoff in March against Ghana.
Amuneke who met with the winger in London alongside the interim technical adviser of the team Austine Eguavoen says his addition to the team is a welcome development.
He said Lookman has come of age after getting regular run of games for Leicester City where he is on loan from German side RB Leipzig. He says he will no doubt bolster the attack of the team.
“He is a great addition to the team, a player that is ready to give his best anytime he is called upon. Playing regularly for Leicester city shows he has come of age and ready for the big ocassion. That explains why we needed him in our fold. I am happy he has agreed to join” he was quoted as saying by CKD media.
