Leeds United leading Liverpool in Adama Traore race

Leeds United are leading Liverpool in the race for Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore, according to 90min. It has been reported that along with Leeds and Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea also want the 25-year-old winger, but it is Marcelo Bielsa’s side who are at the front of the queue.

The West Yorkshire club wanted to sign Traore from Wolves in the January transfer window and held talks with the Wanderers. No deal could be struck at the time, but Leeds have maintained their interest. The Whites are considering making a bid for the former Aston Villa and Middlesbrough winger this summer.

Traore made 28 starts and nine substitute appearances in the Premier League for Wolves last season, scoring two goals and providing two assists in the process. The winger made 27 starts and 10 substitute appearances in the league for the Wanderers in 2019-20, scoring four goals and providing nine assists in the process.
