Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore says there is more to his game than raw pace.

The Spaniard has been one of the shining lights of the Premier League club's season, as they compete to finish in the top four or five.

But Traore says that he can perform even better when he is slightly below top speed, even though his pace is what most fans and pundits often cite as his biggest strength.

He believes that slowing down helps him pick out his teammates, rather than mistiming his final pass or shot.

The Spaniard told reporters: "It's no secret I've been working hard with the manager on not needing my full speed to cross or make a final decision with the pass.

"I have to know at 70 per cent speed I can better choose my pass or at 75 per cent I can see better a pass to Raul or Diogo Jota."
