Famous journalist Fabrizio Romano revealed that Borussia Dortmund player Karim Adeyemi has already received the green light from his German club to undergo routine medical examinations, in preparation for signing his official contract with the Blaugrana during the next week.
The Italian journalist confirmed that Barcelona’s sporting director Deco finalized all the technical and financial details of the deal yesterday, paving the way for an imminent official announcement. He also indicated that direct contact had taken place between Adeyemi and Flick by telephone.
This call reflected Flick’s explicit desire to sign the player, as he considers him one of the key elements that will contribute to implementing his tactical philosophy on the field, while the call resolved the player’s hesitation and confirmed his pivotal role in Barcelona’s project in the coming years.
Karim Adeyemi is expected to arrive in Barcelona early next week to directly join the team’s training in preparation for the pre-season, as this deal comes as a strong message from Barcelona’s management to the fans that the club seeks to compete strongly for all local and continental titles in the coming season, relying on the speed and skill of the German striker, who caught attention with his distinguished performance with Dortmund last season, where he contributed 16 goals with his team in 39 matches.
Adeyemi’s move to Barca will be a qualitative addition to the attacking line, especially with Flick’s experience in managing young talents and dealing with players coming from the German school.
