Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams could be on his way to Brighton

Brighton are reportedly interested in Leeds midfielder Tyler Adams and his arrival could hasten a departure for Chelsea target Moises Caicedo.

Roberto De Zerbi appears to have found the perfect replacement for Moises Caicedo who is expected to leave Brighton this summer.

Brighton to sign Tyler Adams?

According to MailSport, the Seagulls want to add the £25m-rated Leeds midfielder Tyler Adams to a list of summer recruits that already includes James Milner and former Borussia Dortmund midfielder Mahmoud Dahoud.

Adams joined Leeds from RB Leipzig last summer as a replacement for Kalvin Phillips and made 26 appearances for the club before a hamstring injury ended his season early.

Despite Leeds' relegation to the Championship, the USMNT star's performances have attracted Premier League interest and it could see the midfielder make an instant return to the top flight.
