Video: Ex Atalanta star Lookman scores on Atletico Madrid debut
Watch as former Atalanta striker Ademola Lookman takes just 37 minutes to score his first goal for Atletico Madrid on his debut.
The Nigeria international was a deadline day transfer from La Dea to the Colchoneros at a cost of €40m including performance-related bonuses.
He was thrown straight into the starting XI for tonight’s Copa del Rey quarter-final trip to Real Betis.

Atletico Madrid were already leading 2-0 when Lookman added a third just before half-time, completing the rapid counter-attack sparked by Pablo Barrios.
He still had work to do, cutting inside past two defenders to create the space for the finish.
It was the Nigerian’s fourth goal of the season in club football, having netted three with two assists in 19 Atalanta games.
