On July 23, 2026, FC Barcelona officially confirmed the signing of 24-year-old German forward Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund. The player has signed a contract that will keep him at the Spanish club until the summer of 2031.

The transfer fee is set at 22 million euros, with an additional 7 million euros in potential performance-based add-ons linked to appearances and trophy wins. During his time at Borussia Dortmund, Adeyemi recorded 36 goals and 25 assists in 146 appearances across all competitions, demonstrating his versatility as a forward capable of playing in various attacking positions.

This acquisition comes as part of Barcelona's strategic effort to bolster its attacking line following the departure of Robert Lewandowski. The club previously secured Anthony Gordon earlier this summer to address gaps in the squad. The transfer, which was finalized after the completion of all necessary procedures, marks a significant reinforcement for the Spanish champions as they prepare for the upcoming season.
