Ademola Lookman’s adventure with the Atletico Madrid jersey opens in the best possible way. In the 37th minute of the second half of the Copa del Rey match against Betis, with Simeone’s team already ahead 0-2, the former Atalanta striker, who was immediately deployed as a starter, put his seal on the match by signing the third goal.

Benzema proves he has not lost the habit of scoring goals in Saudi soccer.

A performance that could hardly have been more convincing for the French champion.

An all-personal action, concluded with a decisive entry into the box and a winning conclusion. A debut enhanced by the goal, just as it happened in 2022 on his first appearance with Atalanta, when he scored against Sampdoria coached then by Giampaolo.

Better still did Karim Benzema. In the last market session, the Frenchman said goodbye to Al Ittihad to join Al Hilal, and Simone Inzaghi immediately threw him into the fray. Choice paid off big time: dream debut in the overwhelming 6-0 win over Al-Okhdood.

Benzema, at 38 years old, was the absolute dazzler with a hat-trick, opened by a spectacular backheel goal on the half-hour mark and completed by goals in the 60th and 64th minutes. The former Real Madrid man thus confirmed his decisive role in the Saudi Pro League as well. Completing the party were the signatures of Malcom and Al-Dawsari’s brace, for an Al Hilal side that flies ever higher in the league.
