The pieces are fitting little by little. Borussia Dortmund would have already reached an agreement to sign Karim Adeyemi, Salzburg striker, to sign him as a clear substitute for Erling Haaland. The German club thus covers its back since it must already be clear about Haaland’s departure this summer after paying his exit clause of about 75 million euros. According to ‘Skysports’, the operation would have been closed for 35 million euros and the German international will sign for the next five seasons. It is another commitment to the youth of the Dortmund sports management.
The German club had been negotiating the incorporation of Adeyemi for months, but did not want to pay too high a price. Finally, Dortmund has had to bow to the demands of Salzburg to incorporate the young talent. And it is that the Austrian club is very clear that Dortmund will receive double for Haaland’s departure, so they will have enough cash to face the signing.
Curiously, Adeyemi was in Barça’s orbit this last year. The previous sports management had met with the player’s entourage in Barcelona, convinced that it was a diamond in the rough. Adeyemi welcomed his arrival at Barça, but he preferred to go to Dortmund since he understood that he was going to have a much more leading role. Adeyemi knows that it is an intermediate stage since if he succeeds in Germany, in a few years he could take the definitive leap in his sports career.
