‘Sign him up’ – Leicester fans call on Rodgers to give Super Eagles star a new deal

The Super Eagles star was brilliant for Leicester in the first leg of their Europa Conference League clash against Roma

Ademola Lookman gave Leicester City a sustained dream against Jose Mourinho’s Roma in the first leg of their European tie.

Roma captain, Lorenzo Pellegrini had given the II Giallorrossi the lead in the first half but Lookman, looking the liveliest fox on the night, gave his team a leeway back into the game.

He was brilliant all night for his endless running which caused the Roma backline all manners of problems.

Lookman currently on-loan at the King’s Power Stadium from RB Liepzig is eyeing a permanent contract at Leicester.

Rodgers had stated about his place in the team and in the past and said the 2016 Premier League champions were open to giving him a permanent contract.

Lookman has had a bit unstable last few seasons as he’s played at different clubs on loan. He was on the books of Fulham last month before Leicester got him on loan this season.

With his loan coming to an end and following his impressive displays, Leicester fans are calling for a permanent move for the Charlton Athletic star.
