Leeds United news as Che Adams link re-emerges & Liverpool urged to 'go all in' for Kalvin Phillips

Here are the latest Leeds United headlines on Tuesday, 31 May 2022.

Leeds United 'revive interest' in Southampton striker Che Adams

Leeds United are reportedly interested in signing Southampton striker Che Adams this summer.

Adams was a target for Leeds back in January 2020 when the Whites tried to sign the Scotland international on loan. Fast forward two years and Leeds could be set to add the 25-year-old to their squad for next season.

According to the Athletic, Leeds are said to be interested in a Premier League forward, which HITC names as Adams.

Adams has enjoyed a reasonable return for Southampton in the Premier League, scoring nine and seven goals in the last two campaigns for the Saints.

Last season, Patrick Bamford's spell on the sidelines meant the Whites rotated between Joe Gelhardt, Rodrigo and Dan James up front. Given their lack of depth up-front Adams would be an astute signing.

'Go all in' - Pundit encourages Liverpool to make move for Leeds United's Kalvin Phillips

Danny Murphy has urged Liverpool to "go all in" for Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips this summer.

Jurgen Klopp's side endured a frustrating end to their season after they missed out on both the Premier League and Champions League crowns to Manchester City and Real Madrid respectively.

Given City's incredible depth, which will see them add Leeds-born forward Erling Haaland to their ranks this summer, Liverpool need to add quality to their squad to keep pace with Pep Guardiola's side.

And talkSPORT pundit Murphy believes Phillips would be a perfect addition to Liverpool's title challenging squad.

He said: “I think I would go all in for Rice or Phillips. English, hungry, someone you know is going to be around for a long time, gets in, can come in, hits the ground running.”

Signed from Red Bull Salzburg for £25m, Aaronson became the Whites first signing of the summer with the 21-year-old signing a five-year-deal at Elland Road.

He told BBC Radio Leeds: "Number one I have to say (who he looks up to) is Christian [Pulisic]. I play with him in the national team, he's a good friend and I look up to him."
