He said, “With the arrival of Lookman he has the speed that the team demanded."
Lookman's numbers with Atletico are in 18 games he has participated in 11 goals (he has scored 7 and created 4).
Tevent, who was on Atletico coach Diego Simeone's staff last season, also told AS: “For me he has been one of the club's most important signings in the last six, seven years: now Atleti is much more ambiguous on both sides."
On Antoine Griezmann, he added: “(Griezmann has in his head) the treasure map.
“He knows perfectly well in each play where the exits are and, above all, the people who understand the game."
