Speedy winger could join Hammers soon pending medical
David Sullivan is reported to have held talks with the 21-year-old winger on Friday according to the well placed Ken Dyer of the London Evening Standard and says the transfer could be completed soon pending a medical.
Traore started his career at Barcelona’s academy but failed to break through into the first team later joining Aston Villa for £8m in 2015.
Following Villa’s relegation, he joined Middlesbrough at the start of last season again for a reported £8m.
It appears he could be about to move for the third time for £8m, if true let’s hope history doesn’t repeat itself by getting himself relegated for the third time with a Premier League team.
Last week we were told by a senior club source that the priority remains two strikers but there was room for a speedy winger if one became available.
Our source said at the time: “There’s no other business in mind although were a speedy winger to become available that may be of some interest to us.”
