Tyler Adams is a name Leeds United fans have been getting to grips with this summer amid a number of links to Elland Road. The RB Leipzig midfielder has been regularly mentioned regarding a move to Leeds and it comes with Kalvin Phillips’ future at the club up in the air.
Phillips features highly on Man City’s shopping list this summer and while the move to the Etihad Stadium is still a possibility, the speculation around Adams is only going to continue. The Whites have already signed one midfielder this summer, bagging Marc Roca from Bayern Munich, but the departure of Phillips would force them into the market once more and arguably it would make sense to go for someone Jesse Marsch knows well.
Marsch spent half a season in charge at the Red Bull Arena last season, taking the reins from Julian Nagelsmann and helping the club to fifth in the Bundesliga before three straight losses brought about his departure. Adams was a key man in his midfield at Leipzig, operating in a defensive midfield role, alongside the likes of Kevin Kampl, Konrad Laimer or Amadou Haidara.
