Jesse Marsch’s Leeds United are competing with Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur for Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore, according to TEAMtalk.

TEAMtalk have reported that Leeds chiefs have made contact with Wolves over signing Traore in the summer transfer window.

The Spain international winger is on loan at Barcelona at the moment, but the 26-year-old is expected to be back at Wolves at the end of the season.

Could Adama Traore move from Wolves to Leeds United?

In our opinion, Leeds could be able to sign Traore this summer, but only if they retain their Premier League status for next season.

There is no way that Traore would play for a club in the Championship now.

The winger’s best years are ahead of him, and he will surely not want to take a step back in his career and move down to the Championship.

So, in our view, Leeds’s hopes of signing Traore depends on them staying in the Premier League.

We think that Traore would be a brilliant signing for Leeds.

Described as “unplayable” by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp in The Birmingham Mail in January 2020, Traore would bring with him explosive pace and energy and could potentially replace fellow winger Raphinha, who has been linked with a move to Barcelona in the summer transfer window.
