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.

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.
