Just over a week after the summer window closed, reports from Germany stated Liverpool have a ‘strong interest’ in Karim Adeyemi.
It was also stated the Reds consider making an offer for the Red Bull Salzburg star in the winter market.
He has enjoyed a stellar start to the season, managing 11 goals and two assists in 16 matches in all competitions, and the 19-year-old’s fine form helped him make debut with Germany last month.
Sky Deutschland state the ‘big Bundesliga clubs’ are knocking on his door, with Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig are these sides, and the trio have held concrete talks with the striker’s camp.
It’s even said the newly capped Germany international is unlikely to continue with the Austrian side beyond this term, therefore Sky transfer expert Marc Behrenbeck believes Red Bull Salzburg can generate around €30-40m from the player’s sale.
The journalist mentions Liverpool, even though Adeyemi’s tendency is to move to the Bundesliga, which would make any potential it difficult for the Merseyside club to sign him.
“There are also enquiries from England. Liverpool recently asked again. The poker is open. It is also clear that Adeyemi’s career plan includes taking the next step in the Bundesliga, before he might go abroad again,” Behrenbeck said about Jürgen Klopp’s side.
