Born in Munich, Karim Adeyemi came through FC Bayern's youth academy before moving on and eventually making a name for himself at RB Salzburg and Borussia Dortmund.
In an interview with AS, Adeyemi revealed that he grew up supporting Bayern Munich but developed a stronger affinity for Borussia Dortmund during his four-year spell at the club.
“I spent three years at Bayern Munich and they let me go. I’m from Munich, so I was a Bayern fan, but over time Dortmund became my favourite team,” said Adeyemi, who left Borussia Dortmund for FC Barcelona in the summer.
“I watched a lot of their games as a teenager. I like both clubs and have great memories of my time at Bayern, but I loved my time at Dortmund. The stadium and the fans are incredible.”
