Tottenham given Adama Traore hope after Wolves admission over Barcelona deal

Wolves have defended their decision to loan Adama Traore to Barcelona even though the Spanish giants may not be able to afford to buy the winger.

Barca loaned Traore from Wolves in January and have a £29million option to buy him this summer, when the ace will have just one year left on his Molineux contract. The rapid winger has made 154 appearances for the Black Country club but opted to return to Barca, where he was a trainee previously, instead of a potential move to Tottenham, who bid £15m.

Traore,26, has four assists in ten appearances already for Barca who beat La Liga leaders Real Madrid 4-0 in their last game. But Wolves technical director Scott Sellars insists they had to offload Traore as he refused to sign a new deal.
