Soccer players are often known for the skill sets that they demonstrate on the field of play. Every player has certain capabilities and techniques that make them unique in their playing patterns. Players like Adama Traore and Sergio Busquets are so different in the way they approach their games, yet are quite successful in their ways.
A post by ‘Troll Football’ on ‘X’ inflicts that Adama Traore weighs 72 Kg (158.73 lbs), while Spain international Sergio Busquets weighs more than him at 76 Kg (167.55 lbs). This might come as a surprise to fans around the world as Traore has quite a strong physical buildup. While Busquets seems a player associated with a taller and thinner profile.

However, the weight measurements mentioned by ‘Troll Football’ are only partly accurate. Adama Traore currently weighs around 86 Kg (189.59 lbs). Only Busquest’s weight of 76 Kg (167.55 lbs) is listed accurately in the surfaced post. Adama’s height is 5.83 feet, while Busquet’s height stands around 6.2 feet.
What makes Adama Traore a sheer unique soccer player?
Adama Traore stands out among lots of players in the modern generation. The former Wolves winger has the capability to take on the defenders one-on-one. With his pace and sheer physical presence, he is quite a threat to the opposition’s defenders to deal with.
Traore recently joined the London-based Premier League club Fulham. During his earlier days in the top flight of English soccer, the winger was close to an unstoppable force. The midfielders often used to find him in wide spaces and passed the ball to him. He then used his phenomenal pace to march towards the opponent’s box.
