Manchester United Make Enquiry for Dortmund Forward Karim Adeyemi as Contract Standoff Grows

Talks over a new deal remain unresolved, with his camp seeking a reported €80m release clause.

Overview

  • Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg reports United have inquired and obtained information via agent Jorge Mendes, with the club continuing to monitor the situation ahead of January.
  • Borussia Dortmund are pushing to extend a contract that runs to 2027, but no agreement has been reached and the player’s side want a release clause of about €80m (£70m).
  • Adeyemi was dropped from recent Bundesliga starting lineups after a bottle-throwing reaction to a substitution that head coach Niko Kovac labeled “unnecessary.”
  • The 23-year-old’s form has been uneven this season, with two goals in 10 Bundesliga appearances and limited recent starts.
  • Outlets in Germany and England describe a January transfer as possible rather than agreed, with some noting his previous partnership with Benjamin Sesko at Salzburg.
