Adeyemi, who joined Borussia Dortmund from Red Bull Salzburg in 2022, has been making waves with his performances, particularly highlighted by his recent hat-trick in Dortmund’s 7-1 victory over Celtic in the Champions League, bringing his season goal tally to five in eight matches.
Liverpool has been closely monitoring the 22-year-old winger, with reports suggesting they are willing to offer around €50 million to secure his services and potentially fill the void that may be left by Mohamed Salah.
The Egyptian forward has signaled his intent not to renew his contract with Liverpool, implying that this season could be his last with the club, although his agent has refuted speculation surrounding his transfer.
In light of Salah’s potential departure, Liverpool is considering Adeyemi as a viable replacement, alongside other prospects like Christian Pulisic.
Despite Salah’s impressive start to the season with eight goals in five games, Liverpool’s focus on scouting new talent like Adeyemi reflects their forward planning and vision for the future. Salah will aim to continue his goal-scoring form when Liverpool faces Bologna in the upcoming Champions League fixture under the management of Arne Slot.
