Nigeria’s football star Ademola Lookman on Thursday visited President Bola Tinubu at his Lagos residence, proudly presenting the 2024 Africa Player of the Year CAF award trophy.
The 27-year-old Atalanta forward was crowned Africa’s best in Marrakech, Morocco last December, beating out compatriot Victor Osimhen.
Lookman’s impressive performance for both the Super Eagles and Atalanta earned him the prestigious award.
His notable achievements include a hat-trick in the Europa League final, which secured Atalanta’s first European trophy in 2024.
He also had a remarkable 2024/2025 campaign, scoring 15 goals and helping Atalanta qualify for the UEFA Champions League.
Currently on holiday in Lagos, Lookman took time to meet with President Tinubu, showcasing his award and celebrating his success.
The meeting highlighted the recognition of Lookman’s outstanding contributions to Nigerian football and his achievements on the international stage.
