Tottenham and West Ham are reportedly set to battle it out for Adama Traore this January.
When on form, the Wolves winger is one of the Premier League’s most explosive players but has struggled for consistency for much of his career.
The 25-year-old made a telling impact off the bench in Wolves’ impressive victory over Manchester United on Monday, though that may not be enough to see him stay at Molineux.
The Midlands outfit are believed to be contemplating offers for the Spaniard as they look to raise funds for incomings, valuing him at £20million.
With the right coaching and team approach, the former Barcelona man has the potential to become a lethal force.
We look at what Traore would bring to his potential suitors.
Speed merchant
When Traore hits top speed, there is little chance of stopping him.
The winger thrives in bursting past opponents with ease by using his blistering pace and natural strength.
He has put teams to the sword on multiple occasions during his four-year spell at Wolves, where the winger has at times looked capable of rising to the very top of the game.
Last season, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp — who has been linked with a move for Traore in the past — described the Wolves flyer as “undefendable”.
It has seemed that fouling him is the most effective way of preventing Traore from flying past, so much so that the ex-Middlesbrough man is often spotted rubbing oil on his arms before games so that defenders cannot grab onto him.
