Body Photo: Mendes personally negotiated Adeyemi s contract extension and planned to include a release clause for him

October 29th According to the German media "Sports Bild", the well-known agent Mendes will personally handle the contract renewal between Adeyemi and Dortmund. They hope to include a termination clause in the new contract.

Dortmund clearly wrote in its latest financial report: "Dortmund's goal is to remain firmly in the top group of the Bundesliga and believes that it is on the right path." This is probably also related to the fact that the management believes that their team has the right players they need in the next few years.

The 23-year-old Adeyemi is one of them. Reports indicate that the contract renewal game between Dortmund and him has now truly entered the track: Unlike the situation where most of the company's players are left to his employees, the well-known agent Mendes personally handled Adeyemi's contract renewal.

Adeyemi's current contract runs until 2027. Dortmund's management, represented by sports director Kyle, is negotiating with him on a contract extension and has already made a statement on the negotiating table: They are seeking to extend the player's contract until 2030 or even 2031.

In the second scenario, the new contract may not take effect until next summer, since only five-year contracts are allowed in Germany. While such a new contract would be a huge sign of respect for the winger, it's also likely that he won't accept the offer without additional agreements.

The reason: Mendes is known for including release clauses in long-term contracts. In Adeyemi's case, the same is true of the plan, with it being almost impossible for the Germany international to pass up such an option. However, Dortmund's top brass have tried for years to avoid including a release clause in the contract.

Dort only breaks this rule with rare exceptions, such as forward Haaland (25 years old/Manchester City) or current team player Gilasi (29 years old), who can be signed by some of Europe's top clubs for a fixed price.

"Sports Bild" also said that it now seems that Dortmund must also make compromises on Adeyemi's contract extension.
