Venezia break transfer record to sign Nigerian star Akor Adams

Serie A newcomers Venezia have broken their transfer record to sign Nigerian striker Akor Adams from Sevilla in a deal worth €16 million.

The 26-year-old Super Eagles forward has agreed to join the Italian club and is expected to complete the transfer after undergoing the remaining formalities.

The move makes Adams the most expensive signing in Venezia's history, reflecting the club's ambition as it prepares for the new Serie A season.

Adams arrives with valuable experience from playing in Spain and is expected to strengthen Venezia's attack as the club aims to establish itself in the Italian top flight.
