“The main reason why I’m here is Flick. I spoke with him from the very beginning and he explained what he needed. I’m coming to the biggest club in the world to give everything and win titles,” he said.
The partnership with Lamine Yamal and the Catalan identity
Adeyemi showed his excitement about sharing the attack with Lamine Yamal, saying that his style of play will complement the academy product’s very well. When asked about comparisons between the Spanish wonderkid and Lionel Messi, the German was emphatic: “I don’t think Lamine would be upset if I say that no one will ever be like Messi; he has to find his own path and he could win the Ballon d’Or this year.”
