If Bruno Lage&#8217;s side choose to trigger that, it would mean Traore could effectively join for free.<\/p>\n<p>If Wolves decline to sign Trincao permanently, they would have to pay a penalty fee of \u20ac6m, meaning the Traore fee can drop down to \u20ac24m anyway.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
