Emile Heskey raved about Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspur target Adama Traore on ITV (7:19m, January 7, 2023), saying that the Wolverhampton Wanderers winger can be the best in the world on his day.
The ITV pundit made the comments in the build-up to the FA Cup tie between Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers at the weekend.
The former Liverpool striker believes that on his day Spain international winger Traore can be the best in the world.
Both Leeds and Tottenham have been linked with Traore.
TEAMtalk have claimed that Tottenham wanted to sign the 26-year-old winger in January 2022 and remain keen on landing him in the January transfer window.
Leeds Sporting Director Victor Orta personally wants to bring the winger to Elland Road in the middle of the season, according to the report.
Traore is out of contract at Wolves at the end of the season.
Praise for Leeds and Tottenham target Adama Traore
Heskey said: “Traore on his day can be the best in the world.”
Could a January transfer happen?
In our view, Wolverhampton Wanderers are unlikely to sell Adama Traore to Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspur in the January transfer window.
Yes, Wolves will lose the winger on a free next summer if he does not sign a new deal, but they are in danger of getting relegated to the Championship at the end of the season.
We do not think that the Wanderers will sell the winger now when he could play a big role for the team in the second half of the campaign.
