Lookman has been one of the most sought-after players in Europe since the end of last season, particularly after his hat trick in the UEFA Europa League final.

Paris Saint-Germain made an unsuccessful attempt to sign him in the summer. Ahead of the January transfer window, rumours are building up again with more clubs interested, especially from England.

"Obviously, the player that I was then is definitely the completely different player than I am today. And as a person, I have grown up, and I've matured a lot, and I have been able to achieve a lot in my time here,” he told Sporty TV.

“That's also because I've been able to create a process in terms of my work and how I think and all different aspects of my life and areas that I could improve on and do which I have done.”
