Virals: Liverpool begin ‘poker’ for transfer of Karim Adeyemi

Red Bull Salzburg have often found itself as a hotbed for the most sought after young talent in world football in recent years. 

Once the home of Naby Keita, Sadio Mane, Dominik Szoboszlai and Erling Haaland, it would appear the Austrian Bundesliga giants have another superstar in the making on their books. 

Exciting forward Karim Adeyemi has been attracting plenty of interest with his early season performances and both Liverpool and Bayern Munich are reportedly keen on the 19-year-old. 

Now, Sky Germany journalist Marc Behrenbeck, as cited by The Anfield Talk on Twitter, has claimed that the Munich-born starlet will ‘definitely’ leave Salzburg next summer. 

Behrenbeck also claimed that Salzburg would be looking for a fee in the region of €30-40million (£29-34million) for the once-capped German ace.

So far this season Adeyemi has scored 11 goals and provided two assists in 16 appearances across all competitions.

Signing Adeyemi would further improve the youthful attacking ranks in situ at Anfield. 

Already boasting a promising outlook in Kaide Gordon, Diogo Jota and Harvey Elliott, adding a teenager with UEFA Champions League experience would be a huge coup. 

Valued at £18million and under contract until 2024 in Austria (Transfermarkt), the mooted figures for the capture represent worthwhile value for money.
