Karim Adeyemi: Dortmund’s Nigerian star announces marriage to older partner Loredana

Borussia Dortmund’s Nigerian-German star Karim Adeyemi, 22, has tied the knot with Swiss rapper Loredana Zefi, 29, in a low-key ceremony that has sent social media buzzing.

The couple announced the happy news with a heartwarming Instagram post on Monday, revealing they had secretly wed in October.

Loredana, known for her chart-topping hits and striking style, shared a collage of intimate moments , including a close-up of their matching rings.

She captioned the post simply: “2.10.24,” marking the date of their union, and also changed her last name to Adeyemi on her verified Instagram profile.

Adeyemi, not one to shy away from showing affection, commented: “Forever my love,” melting hearts across the internet.

The announcement comes over a year after the couple made their relationship public, having sparked dating rumours in June 2023.

Since then, their romance has been a steady stream of loved-up photos and sweet gestures, with fans closely following their journey.

Loredana was previously married to Kosovan-Albanian rapper Mozzik.

She is also a doting mother to her young daughter, Hana, from her first marriage.

Adeyemi has been spotted bonding with Hana on several occasions, showing glimpses of their blended family dynamic during the couple’s summer holidays.

The duo spent the summer break teasing fans with stunning snaps from exotic locations.

Meanwhile, Adeyemi has managed just two goals and three assists in seven appearances in the Bundesliga so far this season.

The former Salzburg star came on as a late substitute in Dortmund’s 3-1 victory against Wolfsburg over the weekend.
