Bayern Munich are casting their sights over Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore, according to Le10 Sport, although the Bundesliga champions will face competition from Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City.

A revelations of the 2019/20 season, the former Barcelona youngster has finally added some much-needed end product to the searing pace and fearsome power that makes him one of the most unique players in the game.

Traore has contributed six goals and ten assists for a Wolves side who have enjoyed another campaign to remember under Nuno Espirito Santo, pushing for a Champions League place while storming into the latter stages of the Europa League.

And, while Wolves have done brilliantly to keep this exciting crop of footballers together, the upcoming transfer window will bring a fresh challenge.

Traore, according to Le10 Sport, is in the sights of three Premier League giants, including a Manchester City side he dismantled almost single-handedly in the autumn. The 24-year-old scored both goals as Wolves sealed a famous 2-0 win at the Etihad.

Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich are interested too. Although, if the Bavarian giants are hoping that Traore is a cheaper alternative to German superstar Leroy Sane, you’d imagine they would be very much mistaken.

90Min suggests that Wolves want £70 million from a player who moved to the Black Country from Middlesbrough two years ago.
