Borussia Dortmund’s Karim Adeyemi says eating African dishes, especially fufu is the secret to his speed.
The striker who is of Nigerian descent netted the lone goal for the German side in their win over Chelsea in the Champions League round of 16 first-leg tie on Wednesday.
“I eat a lot of African foods,” the German speedster told CBSSportGolazo in a post-game interview at the Signal Iduma Park when asked about the secret to his speed. “I have good genetics from my dad so I think it will be difficult.”
“It is called fufu, and it’s a Nigerian food which is very good,” he added when pressed further.
