Adamo wants to prove himself in Freiburg
The former Salzburg striker has already had more successful seasons than last season. Adamo was used 15 times in the Bundesliga in the 2023/24 season, but was only on the pitch for 93 minutes. In the UEFA Europa League he attracted attention with a goal and an assist against FK TSC Backa Topola.
