Leeds midfielder on West Ham's wanted list - but Brighton, Everton and Villa are also in the hunt
West Ham have reportedly set their sights on Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams - but face stiff competition in this summer's transfer window, with three other Premier League rivals also interested.

Leeds United face a battle to hang on to star midfielder Tyler Adams this summer, with West Ham reportedly interested in securing his signature during the transfer window. </p>
<p>
The Hammers have so far rejected bids for England midfielder Declan Rice from both Arsenal and Manchester City - but it's only a matter of time until he departs the East London club, who are holding out for a £100m fee. </p>
<p>
Irons boss David Moyes has identified 24-year-old Adams as a player who could possibly fill the void left in West Ham's midfield when Rice does depart. </p>
<p>
The USA international made 24 Premier League appearances for Leeds last season and was a fans' favourite until he suffered an injury and had to have surgery on a hamstring problem in March. </p>
<p>
Adams' tough-tackling approach was sorely missed by Leeds in their relegation run-in - but he seems likely to be playing in England's top tier next season, with Brighton, Everton and Aston Villa also reportedly monitoring his situation. </p>
<p>
Adams arrived at Elland Road in a £20million deal from RB Leipzig in July 2022 - and Leeds would be looking to land a fee in that bracket, with reports also suggesting he does have a relegation clause in his contract. </p>
<p>
Leeds are unlikely to sanction any player sales while they wait to announce the appointment of their new manager, with former Norwich boss Daniel Farke still leading the race for the role. </p>
