Super Eagles and Sevilla striker Akor Adams has been found on the wrong end of an unwanted La Liga statistic, Afrik Foot reports.
The 26-year-old forward currently tops La Liga’s offside rankings with 31 infractions this season, a significant margin ahead of Real Madrid’s superstar Kylian Mbappé, who has been flagged offside 20 times.
While the statistic highlights Adams’ aggressive and proactive style of play, it has also sparked concerns within Sevilla’s technical team.

Sevilla concerned about Akor Adams’
The Nigerian’s constant attempts to break defensive lines show his hunger and attacking instinct, but the poor timing has disrupted several promising moves, considering Sevilla have found chances hard to come by.
Adams’ physical profile makes him a natural focal point in attack. Standing at 1.90 meters, he combines strength with pace, often looking to exploit space behind defenders.
However, his eagerness to dart in behind has frequently seen him stray beyond the last line too early.

As per Orgullobiri, Sevilla are still very confident in Akor Adams’ potential, despite interest from Saudi Pro League clubs.
Matias Almeyda’s men are keen on providing extra drilling activities to help the Nigerian time his runs better and be more clinical in front of goal.
The alternative to that is making the ex-Montpellier man the second striker in a two-man attack, as Eric Chelle did with Victor Osimhen at the AFCON 2025 tournament in Morocco.
With his contract at the club running till the summer of 2029, the club feel it’s time to polish the details.

Sevilla are currently 13th on the La Liga table, and have won just one game from their last five.
