Dilemma for Wolves winger as Spain and Mali called up Adama Traore for the upcoming international football for both nations.

The 23-year-old forward was born in  L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona but both of his parents come from the West African side.Traore who came up through the Blaugrana youth ranks replaces injured Valencia striker Rodrigo in Spain’s squad for their Euro 2020 Qualifiers against Malta and Romania but the Premier League star was injured on Sunday during Wolves’ 2-1 win over Aston Villa and will not honour his maiden call-up to the La Roja senior team.”Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the call of the national team because of an injury in the game we played this Sunday against Aston Villa,” Traore told the Spanish team’s official website.”I am sorry I cannot be in this call, but I will continue working to be in the best possible way for the next lists, God willing. I want to thank [Spain] for the confidence that the coach has placed in me.

“This Monday I will have medical tests at my club, Wolverhampton, to know the extent of the injury.”Traore has confirmed that he has been in contact with Mali, but has not put pen to paper as he told the Express and Star: “The truth is I’ve spoken with Mali but didn’t sign anything.”I’ve been in contact with them and they’ve shown interest.”There has been a bit of confusion. I haven’t decided yet.”Since he is not going to be capped by Spain in this FIFA international period, the slim chance of Traore playing for Mali is still open despite missing their 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Guinea and Chad this month.
