Chelsea are ready to rival Arsenal in the chase for Karim Adeyemi as the winger looks ready for a move after changing agents.
According to Bild via Sport Witness, Karim Adeyemi might be ready to leave Borussia Dortmund in the summer for a new challenge elsewhere after he recently changed agents. Chelsea are ready to rival Arsenal in the race for the German winger.
Karim Adeyemi briefly had links to leave Borussia Dortmund in January, and the biggest indication was his change of managing agency. There’s a feeling the winger wants to leave the Bundesliga side as soon as possible, and his failure to do so has seen the attacker change his agents again.
He has since joined Roof, which also represents Kai Havertz and Mohammed Kudus. This is a big enough indication that the latest collaboration is designed to find him a new club in the summer. Adeyemi reportedly rejected Napoli, as reports stated he was eager to join a Premier League team.
Liverpool have held an interest, and they could still enter the race in the summer, depending on what transpires in Mohamed Salah’s future. In any case, Arsenal and Chelsea are also ready to make a move for Adeyemi, according to the report.
Chelsea reportedly made an offer to Adeyemi, which might have been through his agents. However, the conditions might not have been favourable for a move in January. However, the Blues are willing to rival Arsenal in the hunt when the summer window opens.
Karim Adeyemi will have many suitors
Arsenal, in particular, are interested in Adeyemi as they look to add a new wide attacker to their ranks. Mikel Arteta will not be opposed to the idea of Adeyemi, who has 11 goals and assists in the Bundesliga this season, as the Gunners boss looks to add someone with good output.
Arsenal are linked with many other wide names, and Adeyemi could be a viable option depending on the price demanded by Dortmund. Chelsea could give the Gunners a run for their money in this hunt, as the German winger seems destined to take the next big step in his career.
