AliousWolverhampton Wanderers boss Vítor Pereira has shared an update on Boubacar Traoré’s condition and his chances of reclaiming a spot in the first team.
The midfielder has been out of action since August after suffering a knee injury during a Carabao Cup clash against Burnley.
However, he has recently returned to training, signaling progress in his recovery.
Pereira remains hopeful about Traoré’s return, acknowledging both his qualities as a player and his strong character.
The Portuguese coach emphasized that, given the lengthy absence, he is still assessing how much the Malian midfielder can contribute to the squad.
Despite rejoining training sessions, Traoré was unavailable for Wolves’ recent triumph over Aston Villa, having suffered from an illness that further delayed his return to match fitness.
Pereira confirmed that while Traoré is now back in contention, he was not at full health in the most recent training session.
As the 22-year-old continues his recovery, he will need to compete for a place in midfield, where Wolves have reinforced their squad with the arrivals of Emmanuel Agbadou, Nasser Djiga, and Marshall Munetsi.
However, Pereira’s remarks indicate that Traoré could soon be reintegrated into the squad, offering Wolves additional depth in midfield for the crucial final stretch of the campaign.
