Club career edit

After playing in France for Le Havre,[2] Traoré signed for English club Notts County on 1 September 2014.[3] He was released by the club at the end of the 2014–15 season.[4]

Traoré signed a one-year contract on 13 July 2015 with Swindon Town.[5][6] He was suspended by the club in April 2016, alongside teammates Jeremy Balmy and Brandon Ormonde-Ottewill.[7] Swindon Town launched a full investigation into the trio, after they were seen on social media inhaling nitrous oxide gas.[8]

In June 2016, Traoré joined Forest Green Rovers on a two-year contract, linking up with his former Swindon Town manager Mark Cooper at The New Lawn.[9] He helped Forest Green gain promotion to the Football League for the first time in their history on 14 May 2017 in the National League play-off final at Wembley Stadium, starting in a 3–1 win over Tranmere Rovers.[10]

Traoré left Forest Green Rovers in February 2018,[11] joining Tranmere Rovers in March 2018.[12][13] He missed a visit to see family in France in order to complete the signing.[14] He was released by Tranmere at the end of the 2017–18 season.[15]

International career edit

Traoré has represented the Ivory Coast at under-20 youth level.[3]
