Reigning African Football of the year and Atlanta top front. Ademola Lookman has revealed that career stamina improved after his mother introduced Fufu to him in the UK.
According to him “Growing up in the U.K, I was used to eating a lot of junk foods cos it’s something very handy without wasting your time.
One day my mum followed me to the pitch where I play soccer with other kids at the age of ten, she noticed how I easily fell down when being shoved by other kids when contesting for the ball.
After the match, she told me “Ademola my son, I am not impressed by the way you fall when playing football. You are a Nigerian child and you should have the stamina of a Nigerian”
The next day, my mother introduced “Fufu” to my diet, at first I didn’t like it because of the fowl smell, but as I ate it with ewedu soup, I could see the results as my stamina increased.
Now I am here, how can I have make it this far without eating Fufu? I will always represent Nigeria❤️”
