Leeds United have signed USA international Tyler Adams from RB Leipzig. The club announced: “Leeds United are pleased to announce the signing of USA international Tyler Adams from German Bundesliga side, RB Leipzig.
“The 23-year-old joins for an undisclosed fee and has penned a five-year deal at Elland Road, running until the summer of 2027.”
Adams said: “Walking in for the first time, meeting people today at the training ground and coming to the stadium, which is empty now, but I can’t wait to play in front of a full crowd!
“I know a little bit about the club. I watched the documentary which is quite popular and I was able to learn a lot of important things about the club.
“The one thing for me is the passion of the fans.
“So far what I have heard is that it’s electric here. Talking to my friends who have played in the Premier League. They say it’s one of the best atmospheres they have ever played in.
“Now to have those fans supporting me, it’s going to be something special.
