Barcelona have reportedly taken a major step towards signing Borussia Dortmund winger Karim Adeyemi after reaching an agreement on personal terms with the Germany international and submitting an official offer to the Bundesliga club.
Football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, revealed that Adeyemi has informed Dortmund he has no intention of extending his current contract and is focused solely on securing a move to the Catalan giants.
With the 24-year-old’s contract set to expire in 2027, Dortmund could be forced to consider a suitable offer this summer rather than risk losing him for nothing when he enters the final year of his deal.
Despite previous interest from Arsenal and Manchester United, Barcelona now appear to be leading the race for the winger’s signature.
“BREAKING: Karim Adeyemi agreed terms with Barcelona and informed BVB he only wants Barça move. Adeyemi, out of contract in June 2027 and not planning to sign new deal. Barcelona sent an official bid to BVB to get Adeyemi now, working to get it done,” Romano posted on X.
Adeyemi has emerged as one of the Bundesliga’s exciting attacking talents, making a strong impression during his time at Dortmund.
His performances have attracted attention across Europe, but Barcelona now look best placed to complete the transfer.
The German forward finished last season with 10 goals and six assists in all competitions and could prove to be a valuable addition for Barcelona if the deal is completed at a reasonable fee in the current transfer market.
