Wolves’ Adama Traore angling for Real Madrid move

The summer transfer window was unlike any other. See all the major deals and check out how we graded the biggest signings. And just because the window is shut until January, that doesn’t mean the rumours won’t keep coming. Here’s the latest gossip and speculation.

Despite coming through Barcelona’s youth academy, the 25-year-old winger has reportedly expressed his desire to play at the Santiago Bernabeu, and his agent has already contacted Real Madrid over a potential move.

A strong 2019-20 campaign saw Traore flourish in the Premier League with a string of performances that saw him linked to the likes of Liverpool. But after a dip in form over the past two seasons, Wolves are now prepared to accept as little as £18 million from another club to secure his services.

And while a deal to Barcelona is possible, it could depend on whether the Blaugrana are successful in their pursuit of Manchester City’s Ferran Torres.

Barca boss Xavi Hernandez has limited finances at his disposal due to the club’s €1.4 billion debt, which means he will need to take a more selective approach to signings, though the emergence of Traore’s wish to play at Real Madrid might see any interest from Camp Nou dispelled.

“At first I was disappointed [not to leave]. But well, I am not in the third division, I am in a club that wants to win the Champions League. I am Parisian, I have my family, I feel good, I have always said it. I just wanted to discover something else.”
