West Ham United are said to be tracking Chelsea winger Bertrand Traore this summer.
Foot Mercato report that West Ham United are set to make an offer for Chelsea’s Bertrand Traore, and he could be an excellent addition for Slaven Bilic’s side.
Traore joined Chelsea back in 2013, but as is the case with many of the London side’s youngsters, he has gained experience out on loan.
Traore has been spent time with Vitesse in the early stages of his career, but it is at Ajax where he has really caught the eye.
The 21-year-old has been a key part of Ajax’s team this season, as the Dutch side reached the Europa League final.
And Traore’s arrival at West Ham would have to be considered very exciting.
The Hammers fans are known to take to flair players, and Traore certainly fits the description.
Although the youngster can still be a bit of a wildcard, with his end product sometimes letting him down, there is no doubting his potential.
Traore possesses the skills to scare any defence, with his dribbling and speed particularly notable.
The Burkina Faso international has scored 13 goals and claimed six assists for Ajax this season.
And if Traore could produce similar figures at West Ham next campaign, he would be a very astute purchase for Slaven Bilic’s side.
