Atlético Fans Back Lookman Ahead of Manchester United Clash
Atlético Madrid supporters have called for patience with Ademola Lookman after his slow start to the 2026/27 season. The Nigerian forward has scored once in seven La Liga appearances and was substituted at half-time in the recent 2-1 win over Alavés. Fans have pointed to his strong first months at the club, when he scored against Barcelona and helped Atlético reach the Champions League semi-finals. Lookman also scored and assisted on his debut against Real Betis in the Copa del Rey. Lookman could get a chance to respond when Atlético host Manchester United in the Champions League on Tuesday. A decisive display would help ease recent criticism and restore confidence in the 28-year-old forward.
