Tottenham Hotspur has yet to add this January transfer window, but it’s not to say that the north London club isn’t trying to work out a deal for a player to join them this month.
According to Italian football journalist Fabrizio Romano, who stated on his Here We Go Podcast that Managing Director of Football Fabio Paratici has an admiration for Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Adama Traore.
Over the past few months, the north London club has been connected to the 25-year-old, which began when Tottenham hired Nuno Espírito Santo. However, the rumors haven’t gone away even with Antonio Conte taking over the managerial role.
“Yes, talking about Tottenham, they will go for a center-back, the priority is a center-back, but let’s also see if they will also go for a winger. We have had a lot of rumors about Adama Traore, he is super appreciated by Fabio Paratici, the Tottenham Sporting Director, but it’s not going to be easy,” Romano said.
Despite Traore not having a goal or an assist all season, it doesn’t seem to affect Spurs’ interest in the Spain international, who has 18 months left on his contract and has yet to extend with Wolves.
As a result, the Premier League club is in a position where they have to decide whether to risk having him for another six months and take less in the summer or take the fee this month, which will be higher.
