Liverpool's "Everton" official website confirmed that they acquired promising 19-year-old forward Ademola Lookman from "Charlton Athletic". The forward, who played for the England national team under 20, will cost the Toffees around 10 million British pounds, and the player himself will sign a four-and-a-half-year contract. Lookman has been playing for Charlton Athletic since 2014. He made his debut for the main team in 2015 and successfully played in the third strongest league in England this season. After the acquisition, Everton's head coach Ronaldo Koeman said: "I am delighted that we were able to attract him to our team. The goal of this club is to involve as many young players as possible in the project, who should have all the opportunities to improve and become future stars." In the League One championship, the young forward scored five goals and made two assists.
