Adeyemi joins Barcelona

Barcelona have signed German winger Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund on a deal until 2031, the LaLiga club said yesterday.

Financial details were ‌not disclosed by the clubs, but media reports said the deal was worth €22 million ($25.1 million) plus add-ons and includes a sell-on clause.

Adeyemi joined Dortmund in 2022 from Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg and made 146 appearances for the Bundesliga club, scoring 36 goals in all competitions.

The 24-year-old reunites with Hansi Flick, who handed him his senior debut for the Germany ‌national ⁠team during the coach’s two-year spell in charge.

Adeyemi becomes Barcelona’s second attack-minded signing of the transfer window after the arrival of Anthony Gordon from ⁠Newcastle United.
