Arsenal midfielder Daniel Ceballos has raved about Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore on the club’s official website.
Ceballos, who returned to Arsenal on loan from Spanish and European giants Real Madrid in the summer of 2020, plays with Traore for the Spain national football team.
The 24-year-old midfielder also played with the former Barcelona and Aston Villa winger at youth level for Spain.
The Gunners will take on Wolves at the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League on Sunday evening.
Ahead of the match, Ceballos has spoken highly of the 24-year-old, who cost Wolves £18 million in transfer fee when they signed him from Middlesbrough in the summer of 2018, as reported by BBC Sport.
Ceballos told Arsenal’s official website about Traore: “I think he’s a very special player that any coach in the world would love to have in their team.
“Apart from the fact that he’s really intimidating in terms of his physique, I think he’s really improved on a technical level and in terms of cutting inside or going wide, plus he scores goals too.”
Big threat for Arsenal
Traore is a very good winger who runs at defenders with pace and can make life very hard for the Arsenal back-line tonight.
According to WhoScored, the 24-year-old has made four starts and five substitute appearances in the Premier League for Wolves so far this season.
During the 2019-20 campaign, the winger made 27 starts and 10 substitute appearances in the league for the Gunners, scoring four goals and providing nine assists in the process, according to WhoScored.
