Manchester United enter the race for Adama Traore

According to French publication Le10Sport (h/t Mirror), Manchester United have entered the race to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore.

A graduate of Barcelona’s famed La Masia academy, Traore is one of Wolves’ best players this season. After years of showing promise, he has finally come into his own at the Molineux. The 24-year-old has scored 6 goals and 10 assists in 43 matches in all competitions so far this season.

Manchester City and Bayern Munich are also following the player’s situation. The former will be well aware of what Traore can do if given the opportunity. The 24-year-old played a starring role as Wolves beat our Blue neighbours home and away this season.

United have recruited well in recent windows. The likes of Bruno Fernandes have added much to an offense that has at times lacked imagination.

Traore has three years left on his contract at Wolves. Given the financial implications of the coronavirus crisis, it remains to be seen whether the club could afford to turn down a big offer for the player

The former Spanish Under-21 international is a dominant physical presence. He loves running at defenders and has an excellent shot from distance.

Traore has terrorized some of the best defenders in the league this season. An absolute tank of a player, he has both pace and power to be a nuisance to the opposition defenders.

The only concern remains his consistency. A world-beater on his day, he goes missing in games more often than not.
