How to connect temperature (pressure) sensor with current output to Raspberry PI?

Good afternoon, community!)
I don’t know how, but I chose the path of an engineer for myself and now I have to gnaw on granite and other hard rocks.
I solved a lot of technical problems on the Raspberry Pi and, oh naive, I began to believe that I understood something about it. But thanks to the head of the department, he quickly landed me. I set the task to connect a temperature sensor with a current output to the raspberry and read the temperature.
How to connect a temperature sensor to the GPIO is clear, writing software is also clear how. But how to work with the current output?
I rummaged through google, heard enough of Hindu English, fell into despair.
Please point your finger in which direction to look, except for changing your future profession)

Unlike digital current loops, which often involves simple optical isolators, when talking about the Analog industrial control method, the theoretical solution would be to convert the current to a voltage in a range suitable for an ADC chip using a resistor, and adding an external ( I2C or SPI (which could be optically isolated) ADC, see picture below) to the PI.
