10 July 2026 at 20:58

Barcelona have reportedly reached an agreement for the transfer of Borussia Dortmund winger Karim Adeyemi, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Posting on X, Romano confirmed: “EXCLUSIVE: Barcelona agree deal to sign Karim Adeyemi, HERE WE GO! Deal agreed club to club for €22m plus €7m add-ons based on title winning and also appearances. Adeyemi only wanted Barça and will sign a five year deal in blaugrana.”

This deal has looked to be on the cards for the last few days, with Adeyemi shining during his time at Dortmund and looking like a potentially smart addition to the Barca attack.

This also comes as we’ve reported that Ferran Torres can leave Barcelona for around €35m as he’s in the final year of his contract, with Adeyemi’s arrival useful to help replace the Spain international…

Adeyemi looks like he should be a good signing for Hansi Flick’s side, with the 24-year-old finishing the 2025/26 campaign with ten goals and six assists.

Barcelona bag bargain winger

Adeyemi looks set to cost only €29m in total, and if Barcelona can make around €35m from the sale of Torres, then that’s surely smart business overall.

Still, Torres has been a solid and reliable squad player for Barca, and there’s not necessarily any guarantee that the Germany international would be a significant upgrade.

Adeyemi is younger, though, so might have more potential to improve in the future, with others also doing so under Flick’s management at the Nou Camp.

Sources: Tottenham & Aston Villa on alert as Barcelona make €35m star available for transfer

Tottenham and Aston Villa are understood to be among the clubs showing an interest in Barcelona forward Ferran Torres this summer.

As has been widely reported, the Spain international is available for transfer, with our sources confirming to us that Atletico Madrid are currently showing the strongest interest.

We’ve been told as well, however, that if Torres does move this summer then he could also receive offers from Tottenham, Aston Villa, Napoli, and Juventus.

Well-placed sources in the industry, who’ve asked to remain anonymous to protect relationships, suggest Barca will likely look for around €35m to let Torres go.

Ferran Torres looks likely to leave Barcelona

With just a year left on his contract and the likely arrival of Karim Adeyemi at Barcelona this summer, the writing seems to be on the wall for Torres.

The 26-year-old has done well as a squad player at the Nou Camp, but it makes sense that the club are open to letting him go if the money is right, or else they could just lose him on a free in a year’s time.

It is our understanding that there has not yet been any official communication to Torres that he will be sold, but internal discussions have taken place and come to that conclusion.

Torres has also not yet spoken with any other clubs as his focus remains the World Cup 2026 with the Spanish national team.

Ferran Torres has admirers in the Premier League

Torres has long been linked with Premier League clubs, having had a spell at Manchester City as a youngster.

While we can’t currently confirm whether or not Torres would favour a move back to England, he has firm admirers here in Villa and Spurs, who have explored a move for him in previous windows.

They will likely be in the mix again as they look into signings up front, though we are not currently aware of interest from others such as Manchester United and Arsenal, who have also been mentioned.
