Adama Traore's Wolves future is potentially up in the air at the moment with talks going on behind the scenes, according to journalist Luke Hatfield.
The Lowdown: Traore falling out of favour
The 25-year-old has been a solid servant for Wolves, providing incredible pace out wide and contributing to 28 goals in 143 appearances for the club.
Traore has fallen out of favour of late, though, finding himself on the substitutes' bench in the 2-0 defeat away to Crystal Palace last weekend and not appearing at all in the win over Everton at the start of the month.
The winger has been linked with a move away from Wolves in January, with Liverpool seen as possible suitors.
The Latest: Hatfield makes Traore claim
Speaking to Give Me Sport, Hatfield admits that he believes things are happening away from the pitch with regards to Traore's future at Molineux
He outlined: "Some fans were saying Crystal Palace was more a game for Adama Traore. But, with his contract situation at the moment, I think there's things going on behind the scenes with him not playing as much."
The Verdict: Coming to the end?
Traore is a hugely entertaining player to watch when he is in full flow, mainly due to his unrivalled speed and dribbling ability, but it could be time to part ways with him in January.
His record of 10 goals for Wolves is poor given his position - he has also only registered 18 assists in three years at the club - and he looks to be falling out of favour somewhat under Bruno Lage.
The £27m-rated Spaniard's current deal expires in the summer of 2023, so January or next summer has to be the time to cash in on him if Wolves want to reap money from a sale.
