Leeds United have recruited intelligently for the most part in recent years, with Victor Orta the mastermind behind many of those deals.

The Spaniard has not been afraid to return to his homeland for some deals too, with the likes of Junior Firpo, Joel Robles and Rodrigo just a few of the Spanish contingent to have graced Elland Road.

Of those three, the latter has been shining of late, and already boasts nine Premier League goals this season. He has surpassed his tallies in the previous two seasons after just 13 games.

And, if reports from last week are to be believed, Orta could be set to welcome another of his compatriots to join up with Rodrigo.

According to 90min, the Whites are set to battle with Tottenham Hotspur to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore, who has just seven months left on his £46k-per-week deal.

Although he has notoriously 'lacked end product', his blistering speed poses a threat to any defence he faces. He cannot be ignored no matter how accurate he is.

This is proved by Jetro Willems, who admitted: “I have played against some very good players in my career, but no one as fast as Adama Traore. He's unbelievable, a beast. Not only is he incredibly fast, he is so, so strong as well.”

As such, adding the £13m-rated talent to the fold would likely free up even more room for the free-scoring 31-year-old. He had clearly impressed Martin Keown, who told talkSPORT that “he has got everything in his game” and that “he’s electric”.

Also, with 3.17 shot-creating actions per 90, he is not as imprecise as people would have you believe. His 28% crossing accuracy from this season is higher than that of Jadon Sancho and James Maddison, and only 1% lower than Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Traore has made 347 appearances across a career that has graced Barcelona, Aston Villa, Middlesborough and Molineux, providing 87 goal contributions across this period.

Yet it is his dribbling that is his main draw anyway, of which he ranks in the top 1% for successful ventures.

With the goalscoring form of Rodrigo, paired with the devastating physicality of Traore, these two are certain to terrorise defences.

This move could be perfect for the 26-year-old to finally silence his critics alongside so many of his compatriots.
