Tottenham Hotspur 'could miss out Adama Traore due to structure of deal'

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly struggling to reach an agreement with Wolverhampton Wanderers for Spain international Adama Traore.

Spurs are believed to be keen on bringing the former Barcelona youngster to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before the summer transfer window closes for business.

However, according to AS, the structure of the deal is causing problems, with Nuno Espirito Santo's side wanting to take the attacker on an initial loan deal.

The report claims that Spurs are keen for Traore to spend the 2021-22 campaign on loan in North London before a permanent deal takes place next summer.

However, Wolves want the agreed fee of €46m (£39.4m) in the current market, as Bruno Lage's side are looking to sign a replacement before the end of the transfer window.

Traore, who has less than two years left to run on his contract at Molineux, has scored 10 times and registered eight assists in 134 appearances for his current side in all competitions.
