Tyler Adams has completed his move from RB Leipzig
to Leeds United in a transfer costing in the region of £20 million.
The 23-year-old has signed a five-year contract at
Elland Road.
Adams has sealed a reunion with Leeds head coach
Jesse Marsch for the third time in his career following previous stints
together at Leipzig and New York Red Bulls.
The USA international made 75 Bundesliga appearances
in four years at Leipzig but was no longer a major part of the club’s plans and
had been made available in this window.
He has been capped 30 times by the United States
national team.
The midfielder has become Leeds’ fourth senior
signing of the summer, following Brenden Aaronson, Rasmus Kristensen and Marc
Roca into Elland Road. Darko Gyabi, 18, has also joined from Manchester City.
Leeds are also closing in on Feyenoord winger Luis
Sinisterra following productive discussions with the 23-year-old’s club.
Marsch's side are due to fly out to Australia for
three games this weekend.
They will face Brisbane Roar, Aston Villa and Crystal Palace down under.
