Another key match in the 13th round of the 2025/26 Bundesliga season will take place, with Borussia Dortmund hosting Hoffenheim at the Signal Iduna Stadium. Dortmund striker Adyemi stated in an interview that a significant part of his improved form is due to his good working relationship with head coach Niko Kovac.

Thanks to goals from Anselmino and Adyemi, Borussia Dortmund defeated Bayer Leverkusen 2-1 in the last round of the league, extending their unbeaten run to 5 games (3 wins, 2 draws).

Unfortunately, Borussia Dortmund were eliminated from the German Cup Round of 16 midweek by Bayer Leverkusen, losing 0-1 and failing to advance to the quarterfinals.

So far this season, Adyemi has contributed 4 goals and 1 assist for Borussia Dortmund, including 2 goals and 2 assists in the Champions League. His overall performance has been praised by Borussia Dortmund coach Niko Kovac.

The 23-year-old Adyemi said, "The coach has said a lot about me. He thinks I have some talents that not everyone has, and I am aware of that myself. However, it is another matter to have these talents and not use them, because many players are given talents but do not really use them. I have been training hard and trying to bring out these talents in the game."

"For me and many players, our relationship with the head coach is very important because he is a very important figure in the team. We maintain an open and honest relationship with each other. If there is no such connection between the team and the head coach, it will become very difficult on the field."

In addition, Adyemi said, "Of course, the players will fight for themselves, but they also want to fight for the manager. He sets the tactics, and we have to execute them on the field, which requires establishing a good connection with him. I think he not only maintains a good relationship with the team, but also maintains good communication with the back-office staff and all relevant people in the club, which can only benefit the team."

"We are very fortunate to have Niko Kovac as our head coach because we have improved a lot, not only in football, but also in physical fitness, which has been a great help."

Adeyemi added, "We've only lost one game so far this season in the Bundesliga. Although we've dropped some unnecessary points, that's football. We'll try our best to win every game before the winter break and try to get all the points."
