Thierry Henry told Monday Night Football on Sky Sports that reported Leeds United target Adama Traore could be ‘unstoppable’.
The Premier League legend thinks Traore, who is still attracting interest from the likes of Leeds despite a poor season in front of goal, has ‘all the attributes’ in his locker.
But the problem Traore finds is that he is yet to score a goal this season and he has supplied only one assist in 28 Premier League matches.
“When I see his body,” said Henry. “When I see how he plays. When I see his space and what he could do that he’s not doing now.
“If I ever understand what he can achieve and concentrate on that then he will be unstoppable.
“But right now, he stops himself a lot. If he wants to have a go then how do you stop this guy?
“But right now, of course, the delivery is very important. If you don’t bring goals and assists into the game then it can become difficult. But he has the attributes to be successful.”
Eurosport claimed back in February that Leeds are interested in the Barcelona academy product ahead of the summer transfer window.
Ever since Traore was snapped up by Aston Villa in 2015, he has had a rawness to his game which is still apparent six years later.
That end product from the Spain international is still talked about and if he can tune that to higher levels then he can seriously rip the Premier League apart.
