FC Grimma Overview

New Barcelona signing Karim Adeyemi insists he is not afraid of competing with Lamine Yamal for a starting spot in Hansi Flick's attack. The former Borussia Dortmund forward also revealed how a quick phone call from Flick was all it took to seal his dream move to Spain.

Karim Adeyemi is already making waves at the Ciutat Esportiva, with his new Barcelona team-mates left stunned by the German's explosive physical attributes. Alejandro Balde has been the first to lift the lid on the forward's integration, revealing that the pair have quickly hit it off during the club's pre-season preparations.

Robert Lewandowski sensationally turned down a staggering €200 million contract offer from Saudi Arabia to remain at Barcelona, according to his agent. The veteran striker eventually opted for a move to Major League Soccer with Chicago Fire this summer rather than taking the life-changing riches on offer in the Middle East.

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has confirmed he is recovering after being admitted to hospital for a heart procedure. The 64-year-old was forced to cancel his planned trip to England to join the club’s pre-season training camp following the detection of an arrhythmia.
