UEFA Super Cup: Atalanta ready for Madrid, says Lookman

The match promises to be an enthralling encounter, with Lookman eager to test himself against Carlo Ancelotti’s star-studded squad, which includes new signings Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham, and Vinicius Jr.

“These are the games you dream about as a child, and now the moment has come,” the Nigeria international was quoted by Tribal Football.

“We won the Europa League, and now we’re playing for another trophy. We can’t wait; we are preparing with obsessive attention. So yes, we will be ready!”

Lookman’s confidence comes on the heels of his historic hat trick in Atalanta’s UEFA Europa League final victory over Bayer Leverkusen, a performance that cemented his place in European football history, as he became the first player to score a hat-trick in the competition’s final, dramatically ending Bayer Leverkusen’s 51-match unbeaten run and earning Atalanta their first major title since 1963.

The 26-year-old is set to lead Atalanta’s charge as they aim to upset the Spanish giants.
