Leeds United told they can't keep hold of Tyler Adams with transfer expected

Leeds United have been told they'll struggle to keep hold of Tyler Adams if the midfield ace continues his impressive form after the World Cup. That's the view of former UDSA international Stuart Holden, who has been raving about Adams' performances on the back of his efforts against England on Friday night.

USMNT captain Adams helped his side hold England to a 0-0 draw in Qatar, a result that keeps Group B wide open and gives the Americans a great chance of progression through to the last-16 of the tournament. Adams was a key figure in the draw, with his performance drawing praise from English pundits such as Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Ian Wright and Chris Sutton.

Former USA player Holden, who played for Bolton Wanderers as well as 25 times for his country, was blown away by Adams' display and is predicting big things for the rising star. Big things which will take him away from Elland Road.

"Tyler Adams has been outstanding at the World Cup,” he said. "If he finishes the Premier League season the way he started it, he’ll be off to a top level Champions League team. What a player.”

Holden hasn't counted in the fact Adams is just four months into a five-year deal at Leeds and having settled into life in Leeds, currently has no plans of going anywhere.
