Ademola Lookman’s teammate Berat Djimsiti praised the Nigerian winger for his brilliance in Atalanta’s 3-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League final on Wednesday night.

Lookman, 23, hit a sublime hattrick for the Italians, becoming the first player in history to score a hattrick in an Europa League final, and defender Djimsiti was in awe of the Nigerian.

“I need whatever Lookman ate to perform such a wonder against Bayer Leverkusen,” the Albanian defender told Omasports. “I am really happy for him because with him I joke all the time and I said to him before the game that we need the best version of Ademola Lookman,” the Albanian defender told Omasports.

“When he’s in form, it’s really difficult for the defenders. I see it for myself in every training – it’s hard to play against him. 

“It’s incredible. Three goals in the finals.”

Lookman’s goals handed the Bergamo club their first major trophy in 61 years and ended Bayer Leverkusen’s remarkable 51-game unbeaten streak.
