Wolves boss Nuno: Traore has never let me down

Wolves boss Nuno says they must do more to exploit the qualities of Adama Traore.

Traore has struggled to recapture the form of last term during what has been a difficult campaign for Wolves after two seventh-placed finishes.

But the powerful Spain winger made telling contributions in the 1-0 victories over Fulham and Sheffield United, scoring the winner at Craven Cottage before setting up Willian Jose's first goal for the club against the Blades.

“Since Adama joined us, I didn't see one day he didn't give his best," head coach Nuno said before Burnley's visit to Molineux on Sunday.

“Sometimes things don't work out, sometimes it's not only him, it's about us as a team.

“What we have is a very talented player, a unique player in the world, that we have to take advantage of.

“He's been able to reproduce all the things we expect in these games – goals, assists, impact on the game, work ethic.

“So Sunday he's again going to have a chance to prove himself and show to everybody that he's unique."
