As per a report published in CaughtOffside, Liverpool have shown interest in signing Borussia Dortmund winger Karim Adeyemi next year. The Reds will have to compete with some major European clubs including Chelsea, who wants the youngster.
Karim Adeyemi is shining bright
A product of Red Bull Salzburg Academy, Karim Adeyemi joined Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2022. Since then, he has gone from strength to strength. He has established himself as one of the best attackers in the Bundesliga and a valuable talent.
Adeyemi scored five goals and provided two assists in 34 games last season. He averaged 1.1 shots, 0.4 key passes, and 0.9 dribbles per game (stats via whoscored).
The German winger is versatile to don different role in the attacking positions. He is extremely fast and remains a threat in transition plays. He is lethal around the penalty box and has even improved his decision making in the final third.
Karim Adeyemi can be a long-term investment
Liverpool signed only two players in the summer and are bound to have big signings in the upcoming transfer windows. With Mohamed Salah already in the twilight of his career and his continuity is still unknown, the club are exploring options in the market.
The Reds are impressed with Karim Adeyemi’s progress and have shown interest in signing him. He could be a good fit in Arne Slot‘s system considering the pace, direct attack, and clinicalness he provides. However, he still has a lot of room to improve.
Should the 22-year-old continue to develop his game, he can enter into elite names. Joining Anfield would be an exciting move for Adeyemi as it will allow him to prove himself at the highest level. It will be interesting to see how Liverpool approach this interest with other players also present in the scenario.
