Barcelona have completed the signing of Nigerian winger Kareem Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund in a deal reportedly worth €40 million.
The 24-year-old joins the Spanish champions after signing a long-term contract, ending his three-year stay at the Bundesliga club.
Reports indicate that Adeyemi had informed Borussia Dortmund of his desire to leave after negotiations over a contract extension failed to produce an agreement, paving the way for his move to Spain.
The transfer also marks a historic milestone, with Adeyemi becoming the first Nigerian to represent Barcelona’s senior team.
The highly rated forward is expected to strengthen Barcelona’s attacking options ahead of the new season as the club looks to build on its recent domestic success.
