Tyler Adams: Why United admire Bournemouth’s midfield engine Manchester United’s preference is to sign Premier League-proven players as part of their midfield overhaul. According to The Athletic , work is well underway at United to find at least two midfielders for Michael Carrick ahead of next season. Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson’s name is right at the top of the club’s wishlist.
However, Manchester City are considered “the clear frontrunners” for the signature of the £100 million-rated star. Manchester United hold talks for Tyler Adams The Athletic adds that Manchester United are monitoring several Premier League midfielders. “Progress is being made on personal terms with players so United can understand the full costs of potential moves and then press ahead depending on the configuration that makes tactical and financial sense,” the report states.
It is understood Bournemouth midfielder Tyler Adams is on United’s radar. The USMNT star “would be the archetypal midfielder” to protect the defence. The 27-year-old is known for his intense style of play, having come through the Red Bull set-up.
At Bournemouth, he has been integral to Andoni Iraola’s all-action, aggressive style. While the likes of Alex Scott, who is also admired at United, thrive going forward, it is Adams, whose positional awareness and ability to put out fires allow his teammates freedom to make a difference in the final third. The Athletic claims United are in touch to understand the cost, which might be in the £40 million region for Adams.
