ADAMA TRAORE was forced to play without a sponsor on his shirt because of a printing error, it can be revealed.
The Wolves star, 23, played in the 2-1 defeat to Watford without the logo of ManBetX on his chest.

And SunSport understands that it was a mistake from the shirt printers that left him without a sponsor, rather than any religious reason or otherwise.
The club signed a “long-term” sponsorship deal with ManBetX last summer.
The betting brand, founded in 2007, also sponsor Crystal Palace — and fans wondered if he did not wear the shirt for personal or religious reasons.
Wolves players all have three versions of their matchday shirts.
But there was a printing error getting the sponsor’s logo on to Spaniard Traore’s jersey in what insiders have called a “one-off” blunder.
Wolves will be mindful the error could affect their relationship with their record backer.

Traore, 23, has also revealed he does not do weights after pictures emerged of him as a skinny youngster seven years ago, compared to the stacked adonis of today.
He told Spanish TV station La Sexta: “My training? I don’t do weights.
“It’s hard to believe, but I don’t do weights. It’s genetic. I exercise, but I gain mass very quickly.”
