Everton and West Ham linked to Traore

Everton and West Ham are keen on Bertrand Traore.

According to a report on TalkSPORT the young Chelsea striker is in the thoughts of the Premier League duo after season on loan at Ajax.

Despite impressing as the Dutch side reached the final of the Europa League there is no prospect of him featuring in Antonio Conte’s first team squad next season.

At 21 years of age Traore’s Chelsea prospects have been overtaken by Tammy Abraham with the Premier League winners ready to cash in.

Everton and West Ham are both in the market for strikers who like to play on the deck which suits Traore’s style either as a sole striker or coming in from a deeper role.

With Romelu Lukaku looking likely to move to Chelsea during the window Traore is bound to figure in the discussions with Everton where Ronald Koeman is well aware of the strikers development from his loan spells at Vitesse Arnhem.
