USMNT star midfielder Tyler Adams has been one of the few bright spots for a struggling Leeds United team in 2022-23. According to multiple reports, Manchester United took notice of this and is considering making a move for the 23-year-old player.

Adams has reportedly been on Man Utd’s radar while still playing at RB Leipzig. They continued watching him from afar once he joined Leeds this summer and are impressed with the way he managed to adapt to Premier League in such a short time.

Manchester will most likely hold off an official approach for Adams until summer in order to get a complete report on the Wappinger, New York native. Also, the move in January would be unlikely, considering Leeds is fighting to avoid relegation and probably wouldn’t want to give up on one of their best players.

Tyler Adams started his professional career with the New York Red Bulls and was part of the team that won the MLS Supporters Shield in 2018. He made a switch to RB Leipzig in 2019 and emerged as a valuable contributor to the German team in the following season.

Adams made a switch to Leeds in July for a £20 million transfer fee and has inked a five-year contract with the club. He made 10 appearances this season.
