Chelsea had been close to signing Adams but pulled outBournemouth say transfer shows scale of club’s ambition
Bournemouth have signed the United States captain Tyler Adams on a five-year deal from Leeds after triggering his £20m ($25.5m) release clause. The 24-year-old midfielder, who joined Leeds last summer from RB Leipzig, is the club’s eighth signing under their new manager, Andoni Iraola.
Adams had been close to moving to Chelsea but they pulled out of a deal to prioritise getting Moisés Caicedo and Roméo Lavia amid competition from Liverpool. Adams is the ninth player sold or loaned out by Leeds since their relegation from the Premier League.
