Bertrand Traore says a conversation with Cesar Peixoto convinced him that joining Wolves was the right choice.

After a tough time with injuries at Sunderland last season, he believes this transfer fits well, especially since Wolves were also disappointed with their last season.

At 31, Traore is ready to help Wolves push for promotion. He has played at Molineux before with Aston Villa and is excited to entertain the fans as a Wolves player.

Regarding Peixoto, he said, “I spoke with him before deciding, and I wanted to join. He is straightforward. After our talk, I confirmed he’s a top manager.

In football, action is what matters, and I aim to deliver.” On playing at Molineux, Traore said, “I like this stadium. The atmosphere at my previous clubs was great.

Playing here for Villa was tough, but now I’m on the right side, and that feels great. I want to create chances and help others score. I can’t wait for my first game.”

Regarding his move, he shared, “Everything happened quickly. I was training in Dubai, and my brother told me about Wolves’ interest. I wanted to stay in Europe, and I believe Wolves belong in the Premier League, making this a perfect match.

“I’ve missed playing after my injury from AFCON. I tried to come back too soon but am eager to enjoy football again.”

On the Championship challenge, he added, “This is a big challenge for me. My goal is to help the team return to the Premier League. I believe you can have a tough season but bounce back, and that’s my aim.”
