World News – AU – Confusion in international duty: Adama Traoré joins Spain despite his appeal to Mali

Traoré, 24, joined Wolves in 2018 from the Middlesbourugh Championship side in a move that cost £ 18million alongside Nuno Espírito Santo according to TransferMarkt

After a string of strong performances over the past two years, including 22 direct goals in 95 matches in all competitions, the fast-paced winger has seen his services required on the international stage

However, under a set of bizarre circumstances, Traoré, who shares dual citizenship between Spain and Mali, appeared to be called out by the two countries

According to Sky Sports, the winger was recently called up to represent Mali during the current international break, however, despite Mali’s recent call-up, the winger has instead come forward to represent Spain

The wide Wolves player was named to Mali’s international squad to face Ghana and Iran during the international break, but instead showed up at Spanish training camp

It wasn’t until January that Traore said he was « grateful » to have the choice to represent the two countries, but it seems Traore has now made up his mind, although someone should probably say it in Mali
