According to Spanish media, Adama Traore and Barça have reached an agreement on cooperation, which will not jeopardize his current club, Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Despite the fact that Wolves had a 20-million-pound contract with Tottenham, Traore chose to wait for Barcelona, and it appears that he has welcomed the return of his dreams.
No matter what happens to Usman Dembele, whether he will leave, extend his contract or stay in the stands, it has nothing to do with Traore because Barcelona have another trump card up their sleeve.
The Portuguese winger left Barcelona for Wolverhampton this summer on a loan with the right of redemption at a price of 30 million euros, but also a clause that the Wolves must pay Barcelona 6 million euros if they decide not to buy the Portuguese.
The unofficial boss of Wolverhampton is the famous superagent Georges Mendes, who is also an agent of Traore, and Ansu Fati, and who was in Barcelona yesterday for negotiations.
Barcelona will buy Traore according to which formula, but the Catalan media reports that it will be under very good conditions, and that Trinkao’s stay with the Wolves is the key to the entire story.
Traore grew up in Barcelona, where he shone in the junior selections in tandem with Munir El Haddadi.
However, he did not get a real chance in the first team and decided to move to the island.
He didn’t do well at Aston Villa at first, but then he played well for Middlesbrough, only to explode with the Wolves in the end.
Tottenham have been persistent in the last few days in their intention to hire him, but Traore only wanted to play for Barça.
He was in Catalonia at the beginning of January for negotiations when Barça asked him to be patient until the situation with Dembele was resolved.
It is still unresolved, but Barcelona seems to have found a way to register Traore.
It will probably be a loan with a buyout option, and the player himself agreed to a drastic reduction in salary by the end of the season in order to return to the club where he grew up.
