Capped eight times by Spain, Traore has made just two Premier League starts for Fulham this season and was not involved in their 2–1 win at home to Brighton on Saturday.

“I’m so happy to be here, so happy to help the team the maximum I can and show my quality,” said Traore.

“My mentality is always to do better. It’s always to improve as a player, to help the team as much as I can and I always say, if I’m the same person as yesterday, it’s one day lost.

“I love the challenges. I think, of course, we have to go game by game. And this is what we’re going to do, trying to do our best.

“I think everything comes from belief. And I believe we’re going to achieve what we’re looking for.”
