Ademola Lookman joins Leipzig from Everton

Nigerian striker Ademola Lookman has rejoined German side RB Leipzig on a permanent deal from Everton.

The England youth International spent the 2018 season on loan at the ambitious German club and returned to his parent club for the 2019 season where he could only play a bit part.

But he has finally returned to Leipzig after signing a 5-year contract with the German club for a fee £22m.

“I’m very happy to be back here and would like to pick up where I left off in the first half of 2018. I’m looking forward to seeing my new teammates again of course and want to help the team celebrate even more success,” said Lookman

“We’re very pleased that we’ve finally signed @Alookman_. Ademola convinced us immensely during his time on loan here and will now quickly re-integrate and further enhance our attacking play with his dynamic ability,” said Markus #Krösche Sporting director.
