Stuart Holden claimed on Twitter that Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams will join a “top” Champions League club if he continues his current form amid his recent World Cup displays in Qatar.
The United States captain produced a man-of-the-match display in his side’s goalless draw against England on Friday and Holden believes he was “outstanding” at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Doha.
The 23-year-old signed for Leeds in the summer transfer window when Jesse Marsch’s side paid RB Leipzig (Sky Sports) £20million for the rising US star.
Many Leeds fans would probably agree that he has been one of his team’s best players this season, but former Premier League midfielder and United States international Holden believes that if he continues on this current path he will will be linked to the Champions League.
KALVIN PHILLIPS WARM UP THE BENCH AS ADAMS SHINES
Kalvin Phillips is the one who opened the door for Adams to join Leeds because he headed to Manchester City this summer.
Well, since leaving Elland Road, while his replacement has thrived, the player himself has struggled with injuries, playing time and form.
He could probably count himself lucky to have made Gareth Southgate’s 26-man squad because his form or his minutes didn’t deserve it, that’s for sure.
But as Adams prosecuted the likes of Jude Bellingham, Raheem Sterling, Harry Kane, Mason Mount and Bukayo Saka.
Phillips was watching from the bench because Leeds may have found an upgrade on the man they let go.
