Tottenham could make a move for Wolves winger Adama Traore before the transfer window closes on August 31, according to reports.

Nuno Espirito Santo managed the Spain international for three years during his time in charge at Molineux.

Nuno is more familiar with Traore's quality than most, and he wants to be reunited with him in north London.

According to the Daily Telegraph, Spurs are considering a £40m bid for the 25-year-old.

Wolves may therefore be forced to listen to any offers for the forward that arrive before next Tuesday's deadline.

Yet Nuno's counter-attacking style relies on players in that mould and the manner in which Traore has begun the campaign suggests he would offer plenty to Spurs.

Question marks over his end product have been present throughout Traore's career, but he has made positive strides forward in that regard over the last couple of years.

Traore's development in the six years since his move to Villa Park is clear for all to see.
