Adama Traore has declined an invitation to Mali’s senior national team, having appeared in Spain’s camp ahead of Wednesday’s friendly against Portugal.
The jet-heeled Wolverhampton Wanderers star was included in Mali’s 31-man squad for October’s international friendlies against Ghana and Iran.
In a twist of fate, however, the 24-year-old instead opted to join Luis Enrique’s squad as they prepare for three upcoming international games.
A video tweeted by Seleccion Espanola de Futbol saw the former Aston Villa man, who had featured for Spain U16, U17, U19 and U21, arrive at the European nation’s camp.
