Liverpool, aiming to secure a right winger to replace Egyptian international Mohamed Salah, have acquired Italian international Federico Chiesa from Juventus as the transfer deadline draws to a close.His ability in the best of conditions is undeniable, and the key to his new challenge in England will be whether he can break out of his injury habit.
However, the winger, who will be 27 in October this year, is hardly a long-term successor. It would also not be surprising if the left-handed right winger is targeted, as his right-handedness makes him less accurate in shooting and assisting from cut-ins.
According to Fichajes, Liverpool, Manchester United and Newcastle United have shown interest in 22-year-old winger Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund, which could lead to a battle next summer.
The fast winger, who moved to the Bundesliga from RB Salzburg in July 2022, has signed a contract with Dortmund until 2027. Last season was not enough for him, with five goals in 34 games, but this season he has started well with two goals after four games.
His basic position is left winger and he has little experience of playing on the right wing. He also seems to be better at getting behind the opposition’s final line than Salah’s style of play, which is to hold defenders up and hold the ball up.
Depending on what role manager Arne Slot is looking for in a right winger, Liverpool are unlikely to make a move for the German attacker. The player has been the subject of transfer rumours this summer, but will he make his first Premier League challenge next season…?
