Karim Adeyemi opened his competitive account for FC Barcelona on matchday two of the Primera Division against Elche, converting a Raphinha delivery to double the lead.
During the pre-season campaign, the former Borussia Dortmund star quickly established himself as a cornerstone of Hansi Flick’s tactical plans. Having already found the net in a friendly against Basel, he featured prominently in further warm-up fixtures against Birmingham City, Nottingham Forest, Udinese, and Al Ahly in the Joan Gamper Trophy.
At the Estadio Martinez Valero, Karim-David Adeyemi coolly slotted home with the inside of his right boot to beat Matias Dituro. The Argentine goalkeeper was caught in no-man’s land, left as a mere spectator as the ball nestled into the back of the net to double the visitors’ advantage to 0-2.
