NFL scouts urged Wolves star Adama Traore to drop football career

Wolves midfielder Romain Saiss has hailed the form this season of Adama Traore.

Traore came through the ranks at Barcelona‘s famous La Masia academy, and it was there that he supposedly caught the eye of American football teams according to his Wolves teammate Saiss.

“I see him every day, because we are in the gym together, before or after training,” Saiss told RMC Sport.

“Maybe he has a hidden gym room in his house, but at training, in any case, he never pumps iron, whether it is bench-press or otherwise. He is huge and very quick.

“I remember saying to him: ‘You run like an American footballer’.

“He responded to me that at the time that he played in Barcelona, NFL teams tried to get him to playing American football instead, that’s how explosive he was.

“There are people who say that it is not possible, that he cannot be playing football.”
