Chelsea have reportedly earmarked Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore as a potential target for the summer transfer window.
The 25-year-old endured a frustrating Premier League season in 2020-21 with only two goals and three assists - failing to score in the top flight until netting the winner against Fulham on April 9.
Traore's performances improved towards the end of the campaign, though, and speculation over his future has intensified as he enters the final two years of his Molineux deal.
According to The Telegraph, Thomas Tuchel has been handed a £200m transfer kitty for the summer, and Traore features on the German's list of targets for the Champions League winners.
The report claims that Tuchel values Traore's qualities as a wing-back, but Wolves will not sanction an exit on the cheap, so Borussia Monchengladbach's Jonas Hofmann has been identified as a potential alternative.
Traore boasts 10 goals and 18 assists in 131 games for Wolves across all competitions, and he has been called up to the Spain squad for Euro 2020. body check tags ::
