Karim Adeyemi is reported to be close to signing for FC Barcelona, according to coverage on July 13, 2026. Borussia Dortmund excused him from the start of pre-season to allow talks with another club, and president Joan Laporta said the club have long admired him, calling him “dangerous and fast.” Reports place the fee at about €22m plus up to €7m in add-ons. Adeyemi has 146 appearances, 36 goals and 22 assists for Dortmund; his arrival would bolster the attack alongside Anthony Gordon, and Laporta said Raphinha will remain.
