Transfer News: Chelsea considering a move for Adama Traore
According to transfer news from Shropshire Star, Chelsea are keeping tabs on Wolves winger Adama Traore. Chelsea are hoping to take advantage of his contract situation at the club and sign him in the summer.
The 25-year-old Wolves man has incredible pace, which makes him hard to catch and shrug off the ball. He has raised his output in front of goal to go with his bag of tricks.
While he may not have had his best season for the side in the one that went by, he is still one of the more effective wingers in the league. There was also the injury to Raul Jimenez, with who he had formed a dangerous partnership. His absence might have also affected his tally in front of goal.
It is understood that contract talks have been going on between the club and player for a while now. It has dragged on to the point where he has two years left on his deal. While that is still a lot of time, the fact that this is dragging out for so long points to a possible exit from the club. Chelsea have expressed an interest in the Spaniard and will keep an eye on any developments that happen and might make a move accordingly.

It is a rather surprising bit of news that Chelsea are going after Traore. The speedster is definitely a handy player to have on your side but the fact remains that he is too inconsistent. Taking a punt on him may be worth it but Chelsea might want to reconsider their stance.
