Ademeyi wants to follow Liverpool duo Keita, Mane from RB Salzburg to 'top club'

Red Bull Salzburg starlet Karim Adeyemi has admitted he has been inspired by Liverpool duo Naby Keita and Sadio Mane to join a "top club".

The 19-year-old is being linked with Liverpool, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, having scored 15 goals in 25 appearances so far this season.

Mane and Keita both played for Salzburg before eventually arriving in Liverpool, and Adeyemi has expressed his desire to also play for a big club.

"In recent years, many young players have matured at Salzburg and then moved to the best clubs in the world," Adeyemi told Italian outlet Tuttosport.

"I think of Erling Haaland, but also of Sadio Mane and Naby Keita of Liverpool.

"Obviously, I also have this goal. I would like the next stage of my career to be at a top club."
