Liverpool receive a massive boost in the race for RB Salzburg Karim Adeyemi
According to Liverpool Echo, Liverpool now has a huge advantage in the race to sign Karim Adeyemi as the Red Bull Salzburg player has ‘no desire’ in signing for Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United.
Liverpool has been linked with the young German for a few months now. But it seemed difficult as other Premier leagues teams also showed interest in his services.
He has impressed for the Austrian giants who hold a sizeable lead in the league. Adeyemi has filled the void left by Patson Daka and continues to go from strength to strength.
This season he has scored 14 goals in the 21 games that he featured for the club. A sensational talent, he could take his game to the next level under the right guidance.
Apart fromLiverpool, Tottenham and Newcastle. But it seems the current projects at our rivals failed to convince the player as he has ‘no desire’ in joining them.
The Reds could pursue the striker as they are lack dependable squad depth upfront. With Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah looking likely to miss up to eight games due to AFCON, the English club could look at Adeyemi as a solution.
In such a case, the Mersyside team could take full advantage of the situation if they approach his agent. The elimination of two Premier League rivals has handed Liverpool a huge boost, and they would be one of the front runners if their interest proves to be true.
