Premier League duo Manchester City and Manchester United have joined Real Madrid in agreeing to pay the clause, whileBarcelona have strongly been linkedwithHaaland butcan’t afford him, as recently reported. Unlike the Blaugrana, fellow German team, Bayerncan afford to snatch himbut aren’t seen as a probable destination.

In the meantime, the Bundesliga side have alreadyattempted to put pressure on their star player to sign a new contract. “Borussia Dortmund arepressuring me to make a choice. However, all I want to do is play football. That implies I will probably have to make a decision shortly”, the 21-year-old stated in January. While he has been delaying the final decision on his future, theBlack and Yellows have been working on his potential replacement ahead of next season.

Dortmund identify Erling Haaland’s successor

Borussia Dortmund have agreed afive-year deal with SalzburgstrikerKarim Adeyemi.Italian transfer-expert Fabrizio Romano has revealed that the German team areon the verge of securingthe signature of the 19-year-old rising star, with onlyseveral details remaining to be ironed out.

It has been said that the Signal Iduna Park outfit havebeen working on thetransfer for several months, and they areexpected to pay the Austrian club a sum of €35 million in the summer. The German center-forward, who has racked up18 goals in 29 appearances in all competitions,is tied toRB Salzburg untilsummer 2024.

In the 2020-21 season, he has scored three goals in the Group Stage of the UEFA Champions League, while the youngstercan boastof netting 14 times in 18Austrian Bundesligamatches. In addition, he has already been capped three times in Germany’s senior national team, scoring once.

That only tells half the story as Adeyemi has started this season on fire scoring six goals in six matches. The former Bayern Munich youth player has moved up the ranks very quickly considering he has already scored 1 goal in his first cap with the German national team.

Now a report out of Germany, Bild, suggests that the young German has caught the eye of three of the major clubs in Europe: Barcelona, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich. Here are the chances of Karim Adeyemi joining those sides.

Barcelona

At this point it’s wishful thinking that Barcelona will be even able to afford Karim Adeyemi. Rated at £17 million look for that transfer fee to go up if he has a successful Champions League campaign and continues to score for Germany. Barcelona is in cost cutting mode and it’s doubtful that they could enter a “transfer war” for the young German.

Liverpool

Liverpool could make a lot of sense, Jurgen Klopp is keen on bringing in a new striker and as one of the best German coaches out there and in one the best leagues in the World it might be a good sell for Adeyemi to join Liverpool. Competition might be hard, but the young man has the talent to do very well at Anfield.

Bayern Munich

Adeyemi already spent part of his formative years at Bayern Munich’s youth academies, a native son of Munich, Adeyemi may look kindly on a return home and playing for one of the best teams in the world. If the price is right, look for him to suit up in the Bayern Munich red.
