Manchester United are keeping tabs on Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams

According to Football Insider (h/t Manchester Evening News), Manchester United are keeping tabs on Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams.

Leeds are in the middle of a relegation battle alongside Leicester City and Everton and there is a reasonable probability that the team could go down to the Championship.

While it will be a short-lived stay in the Premier League, at the same time, it does provide opportunities for other clubs to swoop in and get top-quality players at a reasonably low fee.,

If Leeds are relegated come the last game of the season, a few of their top earners will be looking for a move to stay in the Premier League.

One such name could be Adams, who has impressed many since joining Leeds from RB Leipzig and even captained the side on a few occasions. A player of his ilk would hate to play anywhere but the top flight.

Still only 24 and with a plethora of first-team experience behind him, he could already be a shrewd signing for any top club looking to add quality depth.

One team which definitely requires top-quality squad depth is United and Adams could be the surprise package that really gels in with the team.

The energetic, high work rate and good technical quality on the ball are all important aspects that Erik Ten Hag would want in his midfielders.

He has shown his ability to adapt to the pace of the Premier League and can excel in the role of an 8 in a double pivot. At the same time, he could deputize Bruno Fernandes as the attacking midfielder.

In conclusion, if Leeds are relegated, then going all out for Adams does make sense for a lot of different reasons and hopefully, the recruitment team is quick enough to advance on a deal as there will likely be competitors for the USMNT midfielder’s signature.
