Akor Adams set for Serie A move as Venezia agree €16m deal with Sevilla

Nigeria striker Akor Adams is on the verge of making a move to Italy after Venezia reached an agreement with Sevilla for his transfer.

The Serie A club have secured a €16 million deal for the Super Eagles forward, with Adams also accepting the proposed move as he prepares for a new chapter in his career.

Venezia had identified Adams as a key attacking target and intensified their efforts to bring the 26-year-old to Italy.

The negotiations with Sevilla have now reached a positive conclusion, paving the way for the striker to complete the switch to Serie A.

The move represents a significant step in Adams’ career after his rise through European football.

The Nigeria forward joined Sevilla from French side Montpellier and quickly attracted attention with his strength, movement and goalscoring ability.

His performances in Spain increased his profile, with several clubs across Europe monitoring his situation before Venezia moved decisively to secure his services.

For Venezia, the arrival of Adams is expected to add more firepower to their attacking options as they look to strengthen their squad for the Serie A campaign.

The Italian club see the Nigerian international as a player capable of leading their frontline and making an immediate impact.

Adams is now expected to undergo medical tests before officially completing the transfer and beginning his new adventure in Italian football.
