Akor Adams: How Much the Super Eagles Forward Will Cost Marseille, Fulham, and Others

Sevilla has decided on the future of Super Eagles striker Akor Adams amid increasing transfer interest ahead of the summer window, reports Afrik‑Foot.

Adams has attracted intense speculation, with several clubs monitoring his situation after an impressive La Liga campaign last season.

The 26‑year‑old joined Sevilla from Montpellier during the winter transfer window in 2025. Although he initially struggled to adapt to life in Spain, he gradually established himself as a key figure in the team and finished the season strongly.

Adams scored 10 goals in La Liga, more than any other Sevilla player. Two of those goals came at a crucial period of the season in the club’s final four matches, helping them to two important victories and six valuable points in their fight against relegation, as they ultimately retained their top‑flight status and avoided the drop.

With interest in Adams growing ahead of the summer transfer window, it looks increasingly likely that the Nigerian forward could leave the club if the right offer arrives.

Reports say Sevilla are willing to consider offers in the region of €30 million for the striker this summer.

The fee would represent a major profit on the €5.5 million the Spanish club paid Montpellier to sign him in January 2025 and should be within reach for several interested clubs.

French giants Olympique Marseille have emerged as frontrunners for Adams’ signature and are considering the Nigerian forward as a potential replacement for Mason Greenwood, who has been linked with a move away from the club this summer.

Los Phoceens could also lose Pierre‑Emerick Aubameyang this summer and Adams’ experience playing in the French top flight has made him an ideal option to strengthen the squad ahead of next season.

Meanwhile, Premier League side Fulham are also reportedly interested in the Super Eagles striker and a move to Craven Cottage would see Adams link up with fellow Nigerians Calvin Bassey and Alex Iwobi.

Fulham are expected to be in the market for a new striker after a move for United States international Ricardo Pepi failed to materialise. Raul Jimenez has also left the club after his contract expired and Adams fits the profile the English club are looking to add to their squad.

Meanwhile, several clubs from Saudi Arabia have also inquired about the 26‑year‑old, although Adams’ preference to stay in Europe could rule them out of contention.

Sevilla would be open to a sale as the funds generated could help ease their financial concerns and allow them to strengthen other areas of the squad.

Should a transfer be completed for a fee in that region, Adams would become the third most expensive sale in Sevilla’s history, behind Jules Kounde’s €50 million move to Barcelona and Diego Carlos’ €31 million transfer to Aston Villa.
