Chelsea target finally finds next club after transfer falls through

Leeds United’s Tyler Adams is set for a return to the Premier League after Chelsea opted to sign Moises Caicedo from Brighton and Romeo Lavia from Southampton.

USMNT and Leeds United star Tyler Adams is set to join Bournemouth after failing to secure a contract with Chelsea. The midfielder

will make a return to the Premier League, after suffering relegation to the Championship last season, despite it not being with the

American’s first choice club.

The fee agreed for Adams, as reported by The Athletic, is in the region of £23 million plus add-ons. Bournemouth have since

progressed the deal with a medical imminently scheduled.

The transfer hasn’t been without its complications with both teams locked in a stand off earlier in the week. Adams had a relegation

release clause of £20m which Bournemouth had agreed, but Leeds maintained the clause had expired.

With talks continuing following lengthy contract negotiations both teams have since found an acceptable middle ground. The 24-year-

old is now due to sign a five-year deal on England’s south coast.

Although all loose ends have been tied up, Bournemouth are believed not to have been Adams first choice. The midfielder instead

wanted to secure a move to Chelsea who have since invested in alternative options.

Adams had even made the trip to London last week in order to secure a move to Mauricio Pochettino’s team, which failed to

materialise. Chelsea instead sought two deals on players who would fill Adams’ role in the team.

A £115 Premier League record transfer was agreed with Brighton to sign Ecuadorian footballer Moisés Caicedo on an eight year

contract, with the option to extend for a further year. The Blues also signed Roméo Lavia from relegated Southampton on a £58m deal.
