“He’s an option not only because of his pace and his good finishing, but also his assists, which means he can give something in the team,” @iMiaSanMia, a Bayern and Germany news feed channel of Twitter and Instagram quoted Flick as saying.
“I’m thinking for example of Dortmund’s game against Bayern, but of course, we expect more from him overall.”
Adeyemi has scored one goal in four games for Germany. He has made 11 Bundesliga appearances this season.
Germany are in Group E of the 2022 FIFA World Cup with Spain, Japan, and Costa Rica.
The Nationalelf have won the FIFA World Cup four times; at Switzerland 1954, Germany 1974, Italia ’90, and Brazil 2014 editions.

What’s this one saying?
LMFAO!
FEMI I tire o..
I think this is the FIRST TIME on this FORUM WE will be on the same PAGE..
…and Jamal Musiala(Germany)
There is no CONSOLATION there OGA..
It is NORMAL
Even SUDAN, a POOR and UNKNOWN FOOTBALL NATION, can still BOAST of having 1 or TWO PEOPLE who’s ORIGIN can be TRACED to that REGION..
For instance GARANG KUOL is of a SOUTH SUDANESE ORIGlN but made the 26 MAN AUSTRALIAN SQUAD….
You guys should come off with all these CHEAP CONSOLATION and EXCUSES and begin to HOLD the PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE, ACCOUNTABLE!
What is wrong with celebrating these boys even though they will be lacing their boots for their respective adopted countries? Must we continue brooding over the past or crying over spilt milk? The Qatar 2022 World Cup is just a week away and your negative comments cannot stymie the adrenaline surge in most of us as well the excitement and frenzy in the air. After all ,Italy ,of all countries,did not also qualify! Noah Okafor,Manuel Akanji,Karim Adeyemi ,Jamal Musiala and Bukayo Saka wouldn’t have been there if they had chosen to represent Nigeria! Please,keep your negative comments to yourselves and stop playing to the gallery. We have cried enough for not qualifying for the 2022 World Cup. I repeat,the World Cup is just a week away. Let’s enjoy it.Life must go on!
LMFAO..
I didn’t stop you from CELEBRATING
All am saying is CELEBRATE EXPENSIVELY rather than this CHEAP way…
I agree with Monkey Post on this one.
We should stop celebrating painful mediocrity and mendacious administrative set up of our football association
We are not celebrating winning any fifa World Cup
We are not celebrating winning Afcon
We are not even celebrating winning Chan
We are now celebrating our own sons representing another nation at this level of our civilisation
While supposed to be competing with the likes of Argentina, Germany, Brazil, France in the World Cup
SHAME on our football pundits!!!
