Ademola Lookman Celebrates Birthday, Sends Exciting Message to Everton Fans Ahead of Homecoming
In a week filled with celebration and anticipation, Ademola Lookman has sent Everton fans into a frenzy by reaffirming his commitment to return to the club, coinciding with his 28th birthday. The Nigerian international, currently shining in Serie A, has made it clear that he intends to finish his illustrious career at Goodison Park, a declaration that has resonated deeply with the Everton faithful.
Lookman, who previously donned the Everton jersey between 2016 and 2019, scoring 4 goals in 48 appearances, has never hidden his fondness for the club and its passionate supporters. “Yes, I will return to Everton,” Lookman stated emphatically. “I miss the city, especially their passionate fans. I love their songs, their voices, and I want to hang my boots there. This is not just a decision; it’s a promise.”
His return is slated for the end of the current season, a prospect that has Evertonians eagerly counting down the days. During his initial stint with the Toffees, Lookman showcased glimpses of brilliance, most notably scoring a memorable debut goal against Manchester City just ten minutes into his Premier League debut in January 2017. He also marked his European debut for the club in a Europa League qualifier against MFK Ružomberok.
While Lookman’s first spell at Everton was often characterized as having “potential unfulfilled,” his talent was undeniable. Despite his obvious abilities, consistent playing time proved elusive, leading to loan spells and ultimately a permanent move to RB Leipzig in 2019.
However, Lookman’s heart has always remained with Everton. His decision to return and conclude his career with the club underscores the profound connection he shares with the fans and the city. Evertonians are optimistic that Lookman can rediscover the form that made him such an exciting prospect during his initial tenure and contribute significantly to the club’s future success.
As Lookman prepares to embark on his second chapter with Everton, fans eagerly anticipate welcoming back a familiar face and a player who genuinely appreciates the club and its unwavering support.
