West Ham are understood to have launched a bid to sign Middlesbrough midfielder Adama Traore.
According to Ken Dyer, the Hammers have opened the bidding with an £8million offer for the former Barcelona youth star, who has been relegated with both Aston Villa and Middlesbrough since arriving in England two years ago.
21-year-old Traore was one of 'Boro's most exciting players last season, despite his erratic form - which has led to many supporters questioning whether he would be a good acquisition.
There are 117 players with 100 or more passes into final 30 yards. Adama Traore is 113th in comp% and 100th in key pass%
