Ademola Lookman Back in Full Training Ahead of Atletico’s UCL Semi-final vs Arsenal
Super Eagles forward Ademola Lookman has returned to full training for Atletico Madrid after recovering from the adductor injury that ruled him out of recent La Liga fixtures. He was spotted taking part in both recovery drills and group sessions, a positive sign for manager Diego Simeone. Since joining Atletico from Atalanta in January 2026, Lookman has made an immediate impact, earning the left-midfield berth and scoring a crucial goal in the quarter-final victory over Barcelona. His return could prove decisive as Atletico host Arsenal in the first leg at the Metropolitano Stadium this Wednesday. Diego Simeone will be hoping that Lookman’s fitness boost helps guide the club to their first Champions League final since 2016. The second leg is set for May 5 at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium.
