JAKARTA - Embarrassed by the behavior of opposing defenders who often grabbed their arms to stop their movements, Adama Traore decided to rub baby oil (baby mint) on his arms before and during the match.

The Wolverhampton Wanderers winger has dislocated his shoulder four times over the past season. The most recent incident occurred against Sheffield United after competition had restarted amid the pandemic.

So, according to The Sun, Traore uses baby oil before entering the field and at halftime.

"It is something we have to do to protect Adama," a Wolves insider told The Sun as quoted by MARCA, Tuesday, July 28.

"The defenders were so worried about Adama getting away from them that they grabbed his arm.

"It caused his shoulder to fall off during the match.

Club insiders continued, lubricating Traore's arm with baby oil made it more difficult for opponents to reach him. It also helps prevent further injury.

Are there any Indonesian League players interested in imitating Traore's injury prevention methods?
