The FC Bayern squad for the current season is in place.
But the FCB bosses apparently have a talent in their sights for the future that has already played on Säbener Straße.
Munich - It was the 71st minute of the game last Sunday in the World Cup qualifying match between Germany and Armenia in Stuttgart when Karim Adeyemi came on as a substitute.
19 years young, under contract with RB Salzburg and born in Munich.
Almost exactly 20 minutes later, the youngster was able to cheer for the first time when he scored the 6-0 after a fine pass combination with Florian Wirtz - and thus scored his first goal in the first international match.
Of course, in retrospect, all eyes were on Adeyemi.
This was then shown on the DFB-PK "flashed" from the events.
Perhaps it was the start of a glorious career in which his place of birth could play an important role.
Because of course, if a very talented attacker comes from Munich and does not play for FC Bayern, the FCB bosses will definitely have him on the list.
FC Bayern: Karim Adeyemi as the successor to Robert Lewandowski?
FCB has DFB youngsters in their sights
Especially since there will be a large gap on Säbener Straße in the coming years.
Robert Lewandowski * is the current world footballer and at the zenith of his creative powers - but at 33 he is no longer the youngest.
The Pole's contract expires in 2023, and there have been repeated rumors about his departure.
Is FC Bayern preparing for the time after Lewy with Adeyemi?
The contract of the new DFB shootings star in Salzburg runs until 2024, its market value is currently estimated at 20 million.
It will probably not be cheaper.
According to the
picture
, the Bayern bosses are watching him and have him on the list for a possible transfer in the future.
The whole thing has a big catch, because Adeyemi already has an FCB past.
He played for the record champions * in his youth, but had to leave because, among other things, his performance at school did not match.
Is that why he's more of a BVB supporter?

“I'm a Dortmund fan in the Bundesliga, if I may put it that way.
My best friend is also a BVB fan.
We're following the club a little, "said Adeyemi in an interview with t
ransfermarkt.de
in 2019
, making a statement that not many FCB fans should like to hear:" FC Bayern is not my club at the moment.
I wish Dortmund that they win the championship so that Bayern stop dominating the league. "
After all, Adeyemi achieved something on Sunday that two former and one current Bayern star did.
Since 2000, only Miroslav Klose, Gerald Asamoah, Mario Gomez, Christian Pander, Serge Gnabry, Nico Schulz and Florian Neuhaus made the goal debut in the first international match.
Karim Adeyemi at the DFB: National coach Hansi Flick is already raving
This is why Hansi Flick also went into raptures when he was asked about Adeyemi's strengths.
"He showed what he showed in Salzburg at the beginning of the season", explains the national coach: "That he is simply a good enforcer in the penalty area, acts very self-confidently."
Actually, attributes that you are looking for at FC Bayern. The only question is whether shooting star Adeyemi would even like to go to Säbener Straße * again. But those responsible should already know how to convince him, should they really be interested in the 19-year-old - one can assume that.
