Overview
- Barcelona officially unveiled Karim Adeyemi at a presentation on Thursday after he completed a five-year contract that runs to 2031.
- Reports say the transfer fee is a guaranteed €22 million with up to €7 million in performance-related add-ons, a low return for Borussia Dortmund compared with their recent sales.
- Adeyemi said Hansi Flick was the main reason he moved to Barcelona and said his priorities include winning titles with the Champions League described as his primary target.
- He completed his first full training session at the Ciutat Esportiva on Friday but is not expected to play in the club’s immediate behind-closed-doors friendly as Barcelona manage registration and fitness.
- Adeyemi departs Dortmund after four seasons and a move from Red Bull Salzburg in 2022, and Barcelona gain a versatile, pacey attacker who adds depth as they pursue domestic and European ambitions.
