It’s no secret that Liverpool are interested in Karim Adeyemi. But who isn’t?

The latest reports in Germany suggest that Liverpool are considering a move for Red Bull Salzburg striker Karim Adeyemi.

The 19-year-old has been subject to interest from various European clubs.

Red Bull Salzburg spent 3.35 million euros to sign the Germany international from SpVgg Unterhaching in the summer of 2018. The 19-year-old has three years left on his current contract which expires in 2024.

The striker banged in 14 goals and provided 2 assists in 18 matches this season across all fronts showcasing just how influential he has been in the final third.

The 19-year-old has been touted as one of the brightest young prospects in Germany.

Adeyemi has represented Germany at Under-16, Under-17 and Under-21 level, winning 16 caps and scoring 5 goals, before making his senior international debut in September 2021. As a member of Germany national football team, Adeyemi won 3 caps and he scored one goal.

His impressive performances this season have apparently caught the eye of some of Europe’s big clubs.

Jürgen Klopp wants to sign a new striker and Adeyemi is one of the names at the top of his wishlist. He is a firm fan of Salzburg striker and Liverpool could make a move for the player if the financial aspect makes sense.

Karim Adeyemi is a dynamic striker, who possesses good technical skills and ball control. His finishing abilities when in and around the box will come as a massive asset to Klopp’s side.
