The Spanish winger is already on the transfer agenda of Barcelona and Chelsea.

Leeds United are reportedly considering a summer move for Wolves winger Adama Traore, who is also wanted by Barcelona and Chelsea.

According to a report from The Sun, Leeds are plotting a 30m pounds swoop to beat both Barca and Chelsea in the race for Traore.

Traore is facing an uncertain future at Molineux Stadium as new manager Bruno Lage will be taking reins from next season.

The Spaniard suffered a dip in his performances last season that saw him lose his place in the starting lineup for Wolves.

With a flurry of attacking options currently present at Wolves, Traore could struggle to nail down a place in the starting eleven.

Barca and Tuchel’s Blues are said to be the interested parties who are keeping tabs on Traore’s situation, with Leeds United joining the race now.

The 25-year-old had earlier spoken about his respect for Barca, the club where he spent his youth ranks and hinted about a possible return.

Traore on the rumours linking him with Barca: “Barcelona is my home. I grew up there and was there for 10 years.

“I have to discuss things with my agents and see what role Barca needs for a return.”

Leeds manager Marcelo Bielsa wants to strengthen the attack ahead of next season and seems to have identified Traore as a top target.

However, it has been added that the Spanish winger would prefer a move to a top club where he can enjoy Champions League football, and this could be a hindrance for Leeds in their pursuit.
