Newcastle are interested in signing Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams, according to MLS Transfers.
The American international could be relegated with the Whites and the Magpies have joined the likes of Arsenal, Hoffenheim, Sevilla, Inter and AC Milan in keeping tabs on the player’s situation:

Adams only moved to Elland Road from RB Leipzig for £20m last year and, despite Leeds’ struggles in the Premier League, he has been a standout performer.
Although he is out injured at the moment, the 24-year-old has been posting some impressive numbers. He is sixth in the Premier League for tackles and interceptions this season despite only playing 24 league games.
Adams would fit in perfectly alongside Bruno Guimaraes in Newcastle’s midfield, and they would certainly be a force to be reckoned with in terms of their work rate and energy both in and out of possession.
With MLS Transfers also claiming that Adams wants “to stay in England”, it could well be a straight fight between the Magpies and Arsenal for his signature.
