What’s the phrase?

In accordance with talkSPORT switch skilled Alex Criminal, the Wolverhampton Wanderers star stays a participant of curiosity for Spurs, regardless of signing Djed Spence from Middlesbrough final month.

“The opposite identify that I’ve been advised that’s nonetheless on their listing is Adama Traore, so as to add some proper wing-back competitors,” he revealed to GIVEMESPORT this week.

Some reports recommend that the Spaniard is on the market for as little as £10m, with the Midlands outfit eager to money in as he enters the ultimate yr of his present contract.
