No LaLiga player has completed more dribbles than Traore who is set to complete a loan move from Wolves to Barcelona.<\/p>\n
The Premier League is brimming with players who love nothing more than taking on their opposite man, and are pretty handy at winning their one-on-one duels.<\/p>\n
Winning said duels can often be the difference between three points and zero. As a result, players capable of operating in tight areas and beating a challenge do not come cheap, which may explain Jack Grealish\u2019s nine-figure price tag.<\/p>\n
But the Englishman isn\u2019t in the top 10 for take-ons in the Premier League so far this season, having completed fewer take-ons. <\/p>\n
In a surprise to absolutely no one, Adama Traore is currently leading the way for take-ons having already completed 91 dribbles, far more than his closest rival. <\/p>\n

That rival is another unsurprising name in Allan Saint-Maximin , with Lucas Moura completing more than 30.<\/p>\n
Joining the aforementioned trio in breaking the 30 mark is Leandro Trossard, Dwight McNeil, Raphinha and Wilfried Zaha, while Mohamed Salah is also in the top 10.<\/p>\n
Not only is a successful take-on so good to watch, especially when players weave through defenders, it can also be the difference between three points and zero and the best dribblers can command huge transfer fees.<\/p>\n
Lionel Messi was the dribbling king last season. The Argentine was one of just two players to complete 100+ take-ons in La Liga in 2020\/21, completing 159 in total, more than any other player across Europe\u2019s top five leagues. <\/p>\n
But he\u2019ll obviously relinquish that crown after departing Barcelona for PSG.<\/p>\n
Leading the way to take the crown is Vinicius Junior who has completed 65 take-ons so far this season, more than any other player. There is no clear top three as things stand, with four players all fighting each other while trying to catch Vinicius. <\/p>\n

They are Yannick Carrasco, Nabil Fekir, Goncalo Guedes and Javi Galan, with the latter also leading the way for tackles in La Liga.<\/p>\n
Things are very close below that quartet, with just three take-ons between them and Memphis Depay who completes the top 10, with the likes of Sergino Dest and Lucas Boye also making the early standings.<\/p>\n
