For some time now, Red Bull Salzburg striker Karim Adeyemi has been associated with a summer transfer. Some top clubs are interested in the German national player, the best cards are said to have Borussia Dortmund, who have long been a favorite for a transfer of the 20-year-old attacker. Now sports director Christoph Freund confirms the negotiations with the current second of the German Bundesliga at “Sky” before the championship game against the Wiener Austria: “There is still nothing to be reported. We are very interesting in conversations with Dortmund. Karim would not be averse either. We will see what the next few days and weeks will bring. “

The crux of the negotiations should continue to be the transfer fee in which the two clubs do not yet agree. Most recently, 38 million euros were rumored as a transfer amount, according to “Sky”, the BVB is said to transfer 30 million euros to Salzburg as a base revenue for ADEYEMI, which still has a contract by summer 2024. “Karim Adeyemi has two more years and therefore a transfer is due. And there is simply negotiations and discussions about this transfer,” Freund confirms that no agreement has yet been reached.
