While Adama Traoré’s career has gone up until he finished again at Barcelona, chaos has reigned in his brother Moha’s. Unlike the star, the eldest did not play at La Masía but at Espanyol’s academy, to begin an eternal journey through Spanish non-professional football: Badalona, Prat, Elche Ilicitano, Córdoba B, Cádiz, Istra (Croatia), Melilla, Hércules, Recreativo de Huelva and now Cornellà. However, this season the tables have been turned. The little boy, before receiving his big chance to come home, was somewhat stuck at Wolverhampton. The eldest, 27 years old, is enjoying his best season in years under the command of Raúl Casany.
Surprising, since he is coming off a disappointing season at Recre. The Dean of Spanish football signed it as a guarantee. A player who had played more than 30 games as a professional between the Croatian Second and First Division, had to be a key man to help promotion. The team from Huelva, on the other hand, was relegated to the RFEF Third Division, a fatal consequence. And Moha Traoré could barely show his impact. He started the first seven days as a regular starter, in which he only scored one goal. Injuries and COVID hampered his campaign and he has not played a single minute since December. A ruptured tendon put him out of action and he was no longer able to prove himself on the pitch.
Despite this, Cornellà knew who they signed. Moha Traoré is a strong, fast and versatile footballer. He can play center forward, left winger or right winger. This season, it is more common to see him in the right lane, where he is developing his full potential. At the moment, he has three goals and two assists and has only missed two games. He is a transcendental footballer in a team that fights against all odds to get rid of relegation places. In the incendiary Group II, he is 13th, with 26 points, only one more than Sevilla Atlético, which marks the abyss.
In this context of continuous survival, Moha Traoré always measures up. Perhaps the visit from his brother also helped. In the victory at home against Linares, Adama went to the stadium and his relative responded with the goal of the important victory against a direct rival in the standings. The new Barcelona player was able to see another version of himself in the stadium. The oldest of the Traoré is a footballer with a cut somewhat similar to that of Adama, saving the distances. Corporally, he is also a wonder, although he does not reach the physical power of the Blaugrana.
Moha is strong in the air, a very mobile player in the area and fast. A somewhat different nuance is his predisposition to get inside and associate in three quarters, unlike Adama, something more faithful to his side. In the Traoré courtyard mistakes followed one another. They both suffer in defense, despite the fact that their physique allows them to go back without excessive wear. Nor do they have the goal between eyebrows, although their impact on offensive football is total. The one from Cornellà, in addition, is not a clear object of fouls like his brother, has difficulty finding the last pass and is not a guarantee in the combination. Yes, he is a good dribbler, but not as effective as the former Wolverhampton player.
Of course, comparisons are odious. Adama, from 1996, is a European soccer star. Moha, from 1994, has finally found his place in the First RFEF and dreams of being able to continue growing and gain a foothold among the professionals. Yes, no rivalry. Both share admiration and publicly endorse each other whenever necessary. There is nothing more to see than the youngest of the Traoré, when he has only been in Barcelona for a few days, he went to the stadium to see the eldest with Cornellà. And he shined. The duo already lives nearby in Spain and promises to continue roaring on the pitch.
