Who is Akor Adams?

Akor Jerome Adams is a Nigerian footballer born on January 29, 2000, in the state of Benue, Nigeria. Standing 1.90 meters tall, he plays as a center-forward and has developed his career in various European leagues. He began his professional career in 2018 with Sogndal IL in Norway, where he played until 2021, accumulating 50 matches and scoring 14 goals. Later, in 2022, he signed with Lillestrøm SK, also in Norway, where he stood out with 23 goals in 38 games. His performance caught the attention of Montpellier HSC in France, joining them in 2023. During his time in Ligue 1, he played in 47 matches and scored 11 goals.

Now, Sevilla FC has announced his signing, with a contract until 2029 and assigning him the number 15 jersey. The transfer was completed for a fee close to 5.5 million euros. Adams expressed his enthusiasm for joining the Andalusian club, highlighting the prestige of Sevilla in European football and his desire to contribute to the team's success. Inspired by figures like Ronaldo Nazario and Didier Drogba, the Nigerian forward aims to bring his scoring ability and physical presence to Sevilla's attack.  

Fantasy Recommendation

The forward arrives at a challenging moment of form since he has not scored in 4 months in the French league. Considering his trajectory, this is not usual as he is a forward who usually scores a lot, as seen a couple of seasons ago with Lillestrøm where he netted 23 goals in 38 matches.

In the short term, we do not see him highly recommended, unless there is the possibility of the departure of Isaac Romero (who has an offer from Roma), but this scenario seems unlikely, as Garcia Pimienta's attacking setup appears to feature Isaac Romero as the striker, with Lukebakio on the right and the newly arrived Rubén Vargas and Ejuke competing for the left-wing position.

Therefore, we see this signing as a good option for speculation, as it has come at a very low price in Comunio, and we are confident that he will improve over the next few days. He may also be interesting in the medium/long term, once the player adapts to Sevilla, and who knows if he can show again all the scoring prowess he has already demonstrated.
