Currently on loan with Austrian side FC Liefering, Adeyemi has scored five goals in 10 appearances this season.

For Arsenal supporters, Adeyemi will be something of an unknown quality but you only have to look at the interest in his services to realise how highly rated he is.

See how seriously Barcelona are pursuing his signature shows what a talent he is, espically coming from Salzburg who have a great reputation for developing younger players.

The likes of Kevin Kampl, Naby Keita, Sadio Mane, Hannes Wolf and Dayot Upamecano have spent time with the Austrian outfit earlier in their careers.

The Austrian side are not going to want to lose him for cheap, but if there is already this level of interest in the 17-year-old, then it may not be long until he leaves the club permanently.
