Traore in the NFL? West Ham star told he looks like 'a mini bodybuilder'

The Hammers boss insists the Spaniard must avoid the gym to maintain his agility after his January move from Fulham. Despite the player's fearsome muscular frame, Nuno believes further strength training would be counterproductive to his explosive style of play.
