# Liverpool: Stan Collymore urges Reds to move for Adama Traore

**Stan Collymore has urged Liverpool to make a move for Adama Traore.**

The Spaniard has been [linked](https://le10sport.com/football/mercato/exclu-mercato-city-liverpool-manchester-united-bataille-xxl-pour-cette-revelation-de-premier-league-504087) with a move to Anfield in recent months after a stellar season with Wolves. Whilst his [six](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adama-traore/leistungsdaten/spieler/204103) goals and 10 assists in all competitions may not be amongst the very best in the Premier League, they are still eye-catching figures. However, it is his ability to beat players – he has completed [5.2](https://www.whoscored.com/Regions/252/Tournaments/2/Seasons/7811/Stages/17590/PlayerStatistics/England-Premier-League-2019-2020) dribbles per match in the top flight, more than any other player – and his frightening pace that has made him one of the most exciting talents in England.

Collymore told The Daily Mirror (print edition, May 26, page 47):

> *“I like the Traore to Liverpool rumour.*
>
> *“Traore was poor at Aston Villa but was still a kid then. It was Tony Pulis who breathed new life into him at Middlesbrough.*
>
> *“The Spaniard has been a revelation at Wolves and has gone from a 20-minute impact substitute to a player who offers good delivery and frightening pace. He could bring an extra dimension to the Champions elect.”*

Liverpool have seen first hand just how good Traore can be. He averaged a WhoScored rating of [more than seven](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/140088/Fixtures/Adama-Traor%C3%A9) in each of the two matches against them this season, for example, whilst his [three goals and one assist](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adama-traore/leistungsdaten/spieler/204103) against Manchester City this term show just how good he can be in the biggest matches.

Valued at £70m (as per [Le10 Sport](https://le10sport.com/football/mercato/exclu-mercato-city-liverpool-manchester-united-bataille-xxl-pour-cette-revelation-de-premier-league-504087) via [talkSPORT](https://talksport.com/football/707946/man-utd-man-city-liverpool-sign-wolves-adama-traore-transfer/)), this is not a player who will come particularly cheap for Jurgen Klopp. However, as Collymore explains, he has certain qualities that could be worth their weight in gold.
