Wolves winger Adama Traore will take a second coronavirus test on Tuesday after returning a positive result at the weekend.

Traore is in Spain after he was named in Luis Enrique’s Nations League squad to face Germany and Ukraine this week – live on Sky Sports – but is currently unable to join up with his international team-mates.

After testing positive for coronavirus at the weekend, the second test on Tuesday is to make sure it was not a “false positive” recording.

If the second test does come back positive, Traore will miss Spain’s upcoming fixtures and is unlikely to be available for Wolves’ first Premier League game of the season, away to Sheffield United on September 14, due to isolation protocols.

Traore was originally expected to be fit for the start of Wolves’ Premier League season after avoiding the need for surgery to clear up a long-standing shoulder problem.

Traore dislocated his shoulder on four occasions last season, leading to concerns he may need an operation.
