Midfielder spent one season at Elland RoadInjured as Whites lost Premier League standingTaking on a new challenge with the CherriesWHAT HAPPENED?
The United States international midfielder has completed a £23 million ($29m) transfer from Elland Road to the Vitality Stadium. The Cherries have triggered a clause in his contract that became active once Leeds had tumbled out of the Premier League. Adams spent just 12 months in West Yorkshire, with his solitary campaign brought to a premature conclusion when suffering an unfortunate hamstring injury in March.

Adams has posted on social media after severing ties with Leeds: “Not an easy goodbye. The club, my teammates and the fans have supported me since day 1, and I wish I could’ve given more in the home stretch. Forever grateful for this past year.”

Adams took in 26 appearances for Leeds on the back of joining them from Bundesliga side RB Leipzig in 2022, but was unable to register a goal for the club and sat out a number of important games during their end-of-season run-in that ultimately resulted in a tumble into the Championship being taken.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
Adams, who captained his country at the 2022 World Cup finals in Qatar, is working his way back to full match sharpness and will be hoping to make more of a memorable contribution in the English top-flight once he is ready to aid the Bournemouth cause.
