Karim Adeyemi played a key role for Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday, getting on the scoresheet as the German side ran out 4-0 winners over Villarreal in the Champions League.

The German international has recently made headlines for the wrong reasons, but has responded on the pitch with a goal in each of his last two games.

Dortmund coach Niko Kovac is clearly a big admirer of Adeyemi's talent, describing the attacker as a “world-class” player following the victory over Villarreal.

Check out what he had to say about Adeyemi in the video below.
