Akor Adams to Venezia: The one condition holding up the Super Eagles star’s transfer

Super Eagles striker Akor Adams is edging closer to a transfer to newly promoted Serie A club Venezia, Afrik-Foot reports.

​The 26-year-old marksman has been a major target for Sevilla this summer. Although he had a decent campaign with the club last season, registering ten goals and three assists in 32 games, Sevilla must sell him to comply with La Liga’s financial regulations.

​After several weeks of speculation, it has become almost certain that Adams is headed to Italy to join Venezia.

Recall that their initial €10 million bid was rejected; however, they continued to negotiate with the player and eventually agreed on personal terms.

​Last week, they struck a deal with Sevilla for €16 million, with €7 million in add-ons. Since then, talks have gone quiet, and Adams has continued training with his teammates.

​However, the deal is now set to be finalized, subject to only one final detail.

​Why This Key Detail Could Decide Whether Akor Adams Joins Venezia or Not

​According to Nigerian journalist Buchi Laba, all parties involved have already reached a middle ground.

He also noted that another La Liga club made inquiries about the Super Eagles star, but Adams insisted on joining Venezia, having already given them his word.

​However, there is just one detail left before the deal is confirmed. Adams is expected to travel to Italy soon to undergo his medical.

​If he passes the medical, the transfer will be confirmed. This should not be an issue for the Super Eagles star, as he has a clean injury history.

​Venezia has already resumed pre-season training, and the Super Eagles star is looking forward to linking up with his new teammates soon.
