Nuno Espirito Santo admits Adama Traore’s ongoing shoulder troubles are becoming a big worry for Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The speedy Spaniard has dislocated his shoulder twice already this season and needed further treatment during today’s spectacular comeback victory at Tottenham Hotspur.

Traore went down holding his shoulder after a minor knock from Spurs defender Japhet Tanganga inside the box.

“Again and again,” Nuno said. “It happened before and I’m worried about him. It’s something that he struggles with, it’s a lot of pain.

“He’s a strong boy but he suffers like everybody else.”

Traore’s injury didn’t diminish another remarkable away day in London as Matt Doherty, Diogo Jota and Raul Jimenez struck to clinch a 3-2 win over Spurs.

The three points puts Wolves sixth in the Premier League and they are now only three points behind Chelsea, who they’ll meet at Stamford Bridge on the final day.

“It was a good game and a tough game,” added Nuno. “Tottenham started much better than us, much better. They showed so much quality moving the ball and recovered the ball well. They had chances and the first half was not so good.

“Second half we were much better; stayed more organised, better points of pressure, higher up the pitch and don’t concede too much. Good movements that achieved beautiful goals.

“I was pleased with the way we finished the game. The levels of energy were there. It was a good performance from the boys.”
