Comes off bench in draw Traore logged 11 minutes off the bench during Saturday's scoreless draw with Fulham.

Impact Traore had dealt with a hamstring injury that prevented him from playing in the opener against Leeds United and starting in this game. Now that he's closer to full fitness, look for Traore to make a major impact with his speed but consistent appearances are hard given his notorious lack of attacking efficiency.

Not ready to return Traore (hamstring) won't be in the squad versus Fulham on Saturday as he continues to work his way back to full fitness.

Impact Traore started 10 of his 20 outings for the club last season in which he generated 39 crosses (nine accurate), one goal on 23 shots (five on target) and 18 chances created. Traore may have to settle for a spot on the bench even once cleared to play, especially after Raul Jimenez (knee) is deemed fit.

Out for opener Traore (hamstring) is set to miss Saturday's match against Leeds, according to manager Bruno Lage.

Impact Traore doesn't appear to be ready in his recovery from a strained hamstring picked up in July. Jonny will help bolster the right flank as long as Traore isn't able to play.

AUGUST 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with hamstring injury Traore has suffered a "small hamstring injury" but is already "progressing well", according to team Doctor Rob Chakraverty.

Impact Traore has enough time to recover before the season begins Aug 6 against Leeds United if he stays on this reported schedule, though he may not be fit to play a full 90 by then. As he seldom plays for a full match, this isn't the biggest problem but is certainly worth tracking for a club that's struggled to score goals consistently.

Returns from loan Traore's loan with Barcelona has ended and he is now returning to Wolverhampton, the club announced Friday.

Impact Traore finished his six-month stint in Barcelona with four assists across 17 appearances (nine starts) in La Liga and the Europa League combined, but most of that production came at the beginning of his stay there and he tailed off after February. The 26-year-old now returns to Wolves, where there doesn't seem to be an obvious place for him in their 3-4-2-1 formation.

JULY 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes shot in loss Traore took a shot and created a chance in Sunday's 2-0 defeat against Villarreal. He also made a clearance and an interception in the match.

Impact Traore was active but he also played an embarrassing part in one of Villarreal's goals on Sunday with a failed clearance. Although he started his loan-stint in Barcelona brightly with four assists in his first four starts in all competitions, he has been very quiet since February and looks set to return to Wolves in the summer.

Provides seven crosses in win Traore created one chance from seven crosses during Sunday's 4-0 win over Athletic Club.

Impact Traore wasn't far away from adding to his assist count and still put in a decent crossing number in Sunday's win. In the next match at Elche, Traore will face a team that's tied for the third-most crosses conceded to forwards in La Liga.

FEBRUARY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Assists yet again Traore provided one assist during Sunday's two-all draw with Espanyol.

Impact Traore is making himself a cult hero in Barcelona as he has now assisted twice in his first two games with Barcelona. The forward is a top offensive option for the club and is establishing himself as a starter quickly. Traore has some surprising fantasy value though it's unclear if he will remain in the starting XI when Barcelona has it's full compliment of attacking options.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Provides assist in Barca return Traore provided an assist, had one off-target shot, created one chance, sent in two crosses (one accurate) and made two interception during Sunday's 4-2 win over Atletico Madrid.

Impact Traore played for the first time since returning to Barcelona on loan from Wolverhampton. And the winger already had his fingerprints on a huge win, assisting Gavi for his side's second goal with a great cross from the right flank. With an unique combination of strength, speed and skill, Traore will be a great asset for a resurging Barca squad. Up next for him is Sunday's derby against Espanyol.

FEBRUARY 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Loaned to Barcelona Traore has joined Barcelona on loan for the remainder of the season with an option to make it permanent away from Wolverhampton.

Impact This move had been rumored for some time and now it's confirmed late in the January window. It's a wonder what Traore will provide to Barcelona having started just 10 matches for a struggling Wolves attack this season. At the least, he'll provide a spark off the bench in La Liga.

JANUARY 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores goal against Southampton Traore subbed into Saturday's match against Southampton in the 78th minute, and he scored a goal in the 3-1 victory.

Impact Traore finally scored his first Premier League goal of the season, clinching Saturday's result for his side in stoppage time. He has started just three times since October as Daniel Podence and Hwang Hee-Chan have emerged as the preferred options on the wings, but maybe this appearance can kickstart a better run of form for the Spaniard.

JANUARY 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes four shots in draw Traore had four off-target shots, created two chances, sent in six crosses (one accurate) and drew one foul during Wednesday's scoreless draw against Burnley.

Impact Traore was one of the best performers here, being involved in most dangerous plays and almost scoring what would've been the opening goal of the match during the first half, making an amazing run on a fastbreak before hitting the post with a powerful right-footed shot. Despite his strong play, the winger is yet to score or assist this season. Up next for him is Saturday's home match against Liverpool.

DECEMBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Used off bench Traore was introduced in the 76th minute and took one off-target shot in Saturday's 1-0 win over West Ham.

Impact Traore's impact has taken a hit under new manager Bruno Lage this season, as he's now played just 36 minutes across Wolves' last three league matches. The powerful attacker will hope to force his way into the starting lineup for a favorable matchup against Norwich this weekend.

NOVEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Creates chance in draw Traore created one chance during Saturday's one-all draw with Leeds.

Impact Traore managed only five touches during Saturday's match. The winger is explosive, and creative, but when he doesn't touch the ball he can't produce on the pitch, or on fantasy lineups. He will face a tough task Monday, against Everton.

OCTOBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Ties for team-high in shots Traore took two shots (one on goal), crossed twice inaccurately and won two tackles during Saturday's 3-2 win over Aston Villa.

OCTOBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Lacking end product Traore took two off target shots, crossed 11 times (two accurate) and created a chance during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Brentford.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Remains threat in 1-0 loss Traore took two shots (one on target), created four chances, sent five crosses (one accurate) and made one tackle (one won) in the 1-0 loss to Manchester United on Sunday.

Impact Traore continues to loom as a threat for any backline he plays against. It was only a matter of minutes until he started causing chaos with breakouts. The winger is the most reliable fantasy asset from the Wolves with his breaking pace and physical presence, which makes it very hard for him to be stopped. He has also started to become much more creative to start the season with nine created chances in his three appearances. Traore will remain one of the best options at the wing in the top-flight.

AUGUST 30, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Busy in loss Traore took four shots (one on goal) and created four chances from five crosses (three accurate) during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Tottenham.

Impact The classic Traore problem is still very present as he had plenty of chances but couldn't convert any into a goal or assist. Fortunately he's not alone this time around, so a collective effort from he and his teammates could see everyone start to put more marks on the scoresheet. Up next is a visit from Manchester United before the international break.

AUGUST 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Taks six shots in loss Traore took six shots (one on goal) during Saturday's 1-0 loss to Leicester City.

Impact Traore missed a perfect chance in the first half and stayed busy, but wasn't able to come any closer over the rest of the game. He will have to break down even tougher opponents over his next two games against Tottenham and Manchester United, and Traore is still off to a solid start in the new season.

AUGUST 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Makes bench against Sweden Traore (hamstring) is on the bench for Monday's match against Sweden.

Impact Traore had been training for close to a week prior to Monday's match and he's healthy enough to make the bench. While he's not a starter, he's once of many wingers available for the Spanish team, and he's one who could fit the role perfectly of super sub for this squad.

JUNE 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Training, status unknown for opener Traore (hamstring) is back in training, but he's not ready to play yet, according to manager Luis Enrique.

Impact Traore still has a few days before Spain's first match on Monday, so there's a chance he'll be healthy enough to make the squad. However, it's hard to see him being used unless he's training fully because he's been out for a couple weeks with his hamstring injury, suffered in the league finale on May 23.

JUNE 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Misses Friday friendly Traore (hamstring) is not in the squad for Friday's friendly against Portugal.

Impact Traore is still recovering from a hamstring injury suffered a little more than two weeks ago and he faces a race to be fit for the Euro opener. Fortunately, Spain's first match is June 14, so he still has a little more than a week to get back his health and fitness. Even then, he's only expected to be a bench option for the Spaniards.

JUNE 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Still not completely fit Traore (hamstring) is still not training fully, according to Spain head coach Luis Enrique.

Impact Traore suffered a hamstring injury in the league finale a couple weeks ago and it looks like it's still bugging him.

JUNE 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Makes Euro squad Traore (hamstring) made the Spanish squad for the upcoming Euros.
