During the autumn of 2012 he was on trial at FC Zbrojovka Brno. In January 2013, he signed a three-year contract there.[2] After scoring 2 goals in 8 games for the reserve team, he got a chance to play for Zbrojovka's first team on 11 November 2012 in their game against Sparta, where he came in the game as a substitute for Milan Lutonský in the 81st minute.[3] On 1 February 2013, in the friendly match against Daegu FC, he scored his premiere goal for the first team.[4] He was part of the Zbrojovka youth team that won the Czech U-21 Junior League in 2013.[5]

On 26 August 2013 Traore collapsed after league match at Ostrava. He underwent surgery with clogged arteries in Ostrava. According to the doctors, extensive myocardial infarction could result in death. Traoré is from their perspective exceptional case, certainly the first in the country and possibly in the world. On 30 August 2013 Traoré left the hospital and continues home treatment.[7] During the 2014-15 season he prepared individually and, in the meantime, underwent several medical examinations. Professional football was not recommended to him.

From 12 January 2015, he started training with the Zbrojovka Brno U-21 team in full workload, but still does not play any matches.[8] In January 2015, he got permission to play warm-up matches.[9] He became the top goalscorer with 33 goals in 25 matches.[10]
