# Wolves: Tim Spiers hints at Adama Traore exit

**Wolves winger Adama Traore could want a new challenge away from Molineux in the [January transfer window](https://www.givemesport.com/1754870-january-transfer-window-2022-when-does-it-open-when-does-it-close-and-which-players-are-going-to-move), according to The Athletic’s Tim Spiers.**

### The Lowdown: Traore linked with Wolves exit

The 25-year-old has enjoyed a curious Wolves career in many ways, proving to be a hugely entertaining player but also flattering to deceive too often.

Despite this, Traore doesn’t seem to be short of potential suitors this month, with a number of clubs [linked](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-transfer-rumours/tottenham-hotspur-adama-traore-transfer-update-latest-news-gossip-rudy-galetti-wolves-thfc-conte-paratici/) with making a move for him, as reports on Friday believe [Tottenham](https://twitter.com/SamiMokbel81_DM/status/1479446997765664774) are the latest team to make an approach.

The 5 foot 10 Spaniard’s current deal [expires](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adama-traore/profil/spieler/204103) in the summer of 2023, meaning Wolves risk losing him on a free transfer if he doesn’t leave by this summer.

### The Latest: Spiers further hints at move

Taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/TimSpiers/status/1479095966724730880?s=20) to respond to a question on Thursday, Spiers suggested that Traore is eyeing up a move elsewhere currently:

> “Easy to forget this is his fourth season at the club as well, might want a new challenge, to maybe test himself in the CL etc, which is pretty normal for any ambitious player.”

### The Verdict: Time to part ways?

Traore showed what he is capable of on Monday, making a clear impact from the substitutes’ bench against Manchester United and playing a part in Joao Moutinho’s winning goal, but his inconsistency remains his biggest shortcoming.

The winger is [still yet to register a goal or an assist](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/140088/Show/Adama-Traor%C3%A9) in the Premier League this season and this is why a move away from Wolves could make sense for all parties, despite him being [hailed](https://thisisfutbol.com/2021/01/blogs/premier-league/wolves/wolverhampton-wanderers-tim-sherwood-praises-adama-traore/) as ‘fantastic’ by pundit Tim Sherwood.

It would allow Traore to test himself at a new club, while Wanderers would earn a hefty sum of money to spend on a strong replacement.
