BVB signing Adeyemi urges Mane NOT to join Bayern Munich

Borussia Dortmund forward Karim Adeyemi hopes Liverpool striker Sadio Mane doesn't join Bayern Munich this summer.

After his move from RB Salzburg, Adeyemi will now fill the void left by Erling Haaland, who signed for Manchester City last month to bring to an end to persistent rumours over his future. Heading in the opposite direction, swapping the Premier League for the Bundesliga, could be Mane - a player Adeyemi is a clear admirer of.

“For me, he is one of the best wingers in the world," he told Sky Deutschland: "I prefer to see him on the outside than in the centre. He would be an asset to the Bundesliga. Unfortunately with the wrong club!"

Explaining why he chose to sign for Dortmund ahead of other sides, Adeyemi added:" The club has a fast and aggressive style of play. That totally got me.

"Hopefully I can do something with my speed."
