Wolverhampton loaned their 24-year-old player, Boubacar Traoré, back to his former club Metz last summer following a 2024-2025 season that was heavily impacted by a serious meniscus injury. Traoré is under contract with the Premier League side until 2027, and his move to England initially followed a promising 2021-2022 campaign with Metz, even though the club was relegated that year.
