Barcelona sign pacy winger Adeyemi from Dortmund

(Reuters) - Barcelona have signed German winger Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund on a deal until 2031, ​the LaLiga club said on Thursday.

Financial details were ‌not disclosed by the clubs, but media reports said the deal was worth €22 million ($25.1 million) plus add-ons and includes a ​sell-on clause.

"FC Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund have ​reached an agreement for the transfer of forward ⁠Karim Adeyemi, who has signed a contract with ​the Catalans until 2031," Barcelona said in a statement.

Adeyemi ​joined Dortmund in 2022 from Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg and made 146 appearances for the Bundesliga club, scoring 36 ​goals in all competitions.

The 24-year-old reunites with Hansi ​Flick, who handed him his senior debut for the Germany ‌national ⁠team during the coach's two-year spell in charge.

Adeyemi is renowned for his scintillating pace, having set a Bundesliga speed record at the time when he clocked 36.65 ​km/h during ​Dortmund's 5-1 ⁠win over Freiburg in the 2022-23 season.

Adeyemi becomes Barcelona's second attack-minded signing of ​the transfer window after the arrival of Anthony ​Gordon from ⁠Newcastle United.

He joins the Spanish champions amid a reshaping of their forward line following Robert Lewandowski's move to Chicago ⁠Fire ​and Marcus Rashford returning to ​Manchester United after his loan spell at the Catalan club.
