Wolves are prepared for incoming bids for Adama Traore this summer, according to the Telegraph.
The winger has enjoyed a productive season for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side, scoring four goals and registering seven assists in the Premier League.
Liverpool are one of a host of clubs to have been linked with his signature, ahead of a potential summer switch.
In this latest update, Traore is described as the latest winger to catch the eye of the top clubs.

I have completely changed my stance on Traore, who deserves great praise for his performances this season. There was a time when I believed he was nothing more than a speed merchant with no end product to his game, something many Wolves fans once believed too.
That aspect of Traore’s play has gone up a gear in 2019/20, however, as his four goals and seven assists prove. He managed just one apiece in the whole of last season, further highlighting the improvements he has made to his game.
I’m still not convinced he could be good enough for Liverpool, however, with the Reds a major step up in quality when compared to Wolves. While his blistering pace could certainly be a lethal weapon from the substitutes’ bench, I have still doubts about his ability to adapt to a different style and his consistency in a team that is now seen as the best in the world.
While Wolves’ game is based around counter-attacks, which are ideal for Traore’s game, I don’t believe he has the technical expertise to play in a team who dominate possession so often. His 73.1 per cent pass completion rate in the league this season is inferior to both Mohamed Salah (77.2%) and Sadio Mane (81.4%), according to WhoScored.
