Adama Traoré catches the attention of Chelsea

Although he has not been able to establish himself in the starting eleven of Middlesbrough (he has only been a starter in 8 Premier League matches), the young forward Adama Traoré (20 years old) has managed to make his way into the agenda of one of the great clubs in the British tournament, Chelsea.

According to Sport newspaper, the winger has managed to attract the attention of Antonio Conte both for his speed and his ability to dribble, qualities that the Italian coach considers indispensable for the proper functioning of the 3-4-3 formation, a scheme that has propelled the Blues to the top of the table.

Forged in the youth academy of FC Barcelona, the forward played four matches with the first team before being transferred to Aston Villa, a team that paid a considerable 10 million euros to acquire his services and that last summer, after barely giving him the opportunity to play 11 Premier League matches, decided to facilitate his transfer to Boro (Middlesbrough).

If the offer from Stamford Bridge is finalized, Traoré will encounter an excellent opportunity to boost a career that was heading very high but had entered a worrying decline after leaving the Barça discipline. However, earning a place in the starting eleven will not be easy.
