The star that Vinicius wants for the forward line isn't Mbappé

Real Madrid is exploring various options to strengthen their squad and address the uncertainty surrounding Kylian Mbappé's situation. Aware of the need to fill the void left by Karim Benzema, the Real Madrid executives have set their sights on Karim Adeyemi, the talented German forward currently playing for Borussia Dortmund.

Adeyemi stands out for his speed on the field and his ball-carrying ability. His versatility allows him to play both as a center forward and on the wings, covering two key positions in the team.

His explosive playing style resembles that of players like Vinícius, Rodrygo, Fede Valverde, or Fran García, fitting perfectly with the energetic philosophy sought by coach Carlo Ancelotti. In the current season, the young talent has scored 9 goals and provided 6 assists in 32 matches.

However, the signing of Adeyemi would require a significant investment from Real Madrid. The club has already experienced the complexities of negotiating with Borussia Dortmund, which is reluctant to sell its players unless a substantial offer is made.

It can be challenging

As seen in the case of Bellingham, whose transfer amounted to 100 million EUR plus 30 in variables, it is estimated that Adeyemi's price would be around 80 million EUR. Real Madrid finds itself in a delicate situation as they seek to strengthen their squad with young prospects without compromising their financial stability.
