Karim Adeyemi in the sights of justice
Karim Adeyemi, Borussia Dortmund striker and German international, will have to pay 450,000 euros for illegal possession of weapons. The affair dates back to the summer of 2024, when he and his wife Loredana were on vacation in Greece. A childhood friend, assigned to bring him a package, made a mistake and transported a “mystery box” containing weapons in his place. Weeze Airport security seized the package, discovering three knives, two brass knuckles, a telescopic baton, a glaring light and two balaclavas. Police determined the box belonged to Adeyemi and pursued the friend as well. The player has not commented on the matter and his lawyer declined to speak. Borussia Dortmund said it takes the matter seriously and respects confidentiality. Acquiring and possessing weapons without authorization is punishable by prison or fines. The Hagen public prosecutor’s office chose a criminal order, avoiding a criminal record for Adeyemi. Rudi Völler called the mistake “naive and stupid”, emphasizing that the player will not be morally condemned.
Luis Enrique wants to put an end to injuries
Club football is back and so is PSG. Precisely, Luis Enrique wants to better manage the return of his injured players after the recent injuries to Ousmane Dembélé and Nuno Mendes during the match against Bayern. The Spanish coach admitted: “ When you recover injured players, they have recovered but they are not 100% fit. This is something I need to know how to manage better. » He intends to modify the last phase of the recovery process, the “crash test” where players must complete intensive sessions without relapse. The idea is to give them more time to acclimatize to training before returning to competition. The model works, as João Neves showed after his injury, but the returns of Dembélé and Mendes remain uncertain for PSG-Tottenham. After the cascade of injuries at the start of the season, PSG and Luis Enrique want to find a squad in top form and this requires certain adjustments.
The return of Paul Pogba is eagerly awaited
This time it should be good. “At the foot of the Rock”, the title readsTeam. The Frenchman is finally preparing to play again with Monaco, twenty-six months after his last match, at the end of a chaotic journey between injuries, suspension for doping and kidnapping. The Frenchman, who saw his sentence reduced to eighteen months after pleading the absence of intention to cheat, spent five months rebuilding himself physically at ASM, where he signed in June, moved to tears. Despite the family heartbreak caused by the trial involving his brother, Pogba refocused on his family, his projects and meticulous preparation. If he plays again in Rennes, it will first of all be a symbol: that of a player who has got back up. Monaco remains cautious, the main risk being too brutal a recovery, but the club hopes to make it a force by early 2026. In the meantime, we could have a few minutes this weekend against Stade Rennais.
