Chelsea eye RB Salzburg striker Karim Adeyemi

Chelsea are interested in signing Karim Adeyemi from RB Salzburg, according to Fichajes. It has been reported that Chelsea, who won the Champions League last season, want to sign a new striker in the summer of 2022 and have identified the 19-year-old as a potential target.

Thomas Tuchel’s side re-signed Romelu Lukaku from Inter Milan in the summer of 2022, but the Belgium international has had injury problems and is also not firing at the moment. The 28-year-old former Manchester United striker has scored three goals in seven Premier League games and one goal in three Champions League appearances.

Adeyemi has scored eight goals in 10 Austrian Bundesliga appearances so far this season. The 19-year-old Germany international striker has found the back of the net three times in three Champions League matches for RB Salzburg so far this campaign.
