Another top club chasing Karim Adeyemi – winter move on the cards? | OneFootball

Karim Adeyemi had to watch the German national team’s 2-0 victory on Friday evening in Luxembourg from the stands due to a yellow card suspension. However, the Borussia Dortmund attacker will be eligible to play against Slovakia on Monday in the decisive match for the group win and direct World Cup qualification. Meanwhile, speculation about Adeyemi’s future at club level is increasing.

After Adeyemi had previously attracted interest mainly from Italy, in recent days Manchester United’s interest has become public. The Red Devils are said to have already been in contact with Adeyemi’s agent Jorge Mendes, who already has other clients such as Leny Yoro and Manuel Ugarte at the club.

However, Man United is apparently not the only prominent English club with Adeyemi on their wish list. According to the portal “Teamtalk”, Arsenal FC has also reached out to Mendes. The Gunners, and especially coach Mikel Arteta, reportedly see Adeyemi as a suitable alternative to Bukayo Saka, for whom there is currently no real competitor in the squad.

Adeyemi: Prefers London over Manchester

According to “Teamtalk”, Adeyemi’s camp has already indicated that a move to England is very conceivable. Furthermore, Adeyemi is said to prefer London over Manchester.

A transfer in January is also not ruled out. Dortmund is reportedly demanding at least 70 million euros as a transfer fee, although it is not yet clear whether BVB would even be open to negotiations at this stage.

If the ongoing talks about a long-term contract extension in Dortmund do not progress, and especially if no agreement is reached on the crucial issue of a release clause, Borussia could open up to a January transfer or a sale next summer. One thing is clear: Adeyemi should not enter the 2026/27 season with an expiring contract.
