Sevilla are contemplating a Bosman move for 29-year-old Fulham winger Adama Traore, as they plot a move to bring the speedster back to La Liga.
According to Fichajes, Sevilla are thinking about making a Bosman move for Adama Traore next summer. The Spanish side senses a bit of financial opportunity to get a player of his calibre through the door, as the speedy winger’s Fulham future is certainly on a downward curve.
Fulham had a plan in mind with regard to Adama Traore’s future as they triggered the club option of a one-year extension back in May of this year. The primary idea was to find a suitor to sell the attacker, although the lack of offensive incomings until the latter stages of the window probably saw the 29-year-old Fulham speedster stay put.
Marco Silva clearly does not view Traore as part of his plans, often using him as a fail-safe option in games this season. With the Spanish winger’s contract expiring at the end of the current campaign, he is pencilled in to move out on a Bosman deal, as Sevilla are now angling for a free transfer of the attacker, although the Cottagers are open to selling him in January.
Reports have stated that Fulham could make him available on a cut-price fee, although there are considerable doubts about whether any team would like to pay for his move at this moment. Hence, Sevilla might have a chance to get him through the door without paying a fee, as they are mindful of their financial standing at the moment.
Sevilla are eager to bring the 29-year-old Fulham speedster back to La Liga, where he had a short spell with Barcelona before moving to Fulham. Back then, he had a productive time with the Catalans, but the financial situation with the Spanish giants prevented a permanent transfer.
Adama Traore to leave Fulham
Traore does not see a future beyond this season at Fulham, and while the club might be open to selling him in January, there are doubts about whether he will make a rushed decision. There’s also interest from West Ham United ahead of January, as former Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo, now with the Hammers, would reportedly like a reunion of sorts.
However, the prospect of returning to La Liga might also tempt Traore, as he could express himself better in Spain. Hence, Sevilla have a chance to sign him for free next summer, or if they can conjure up a similar deal in January, as Los Nervionenses are keen to get the 29-year-old Fulham speedster without incurring any costs on his transfer.
