Leeds midfielder Tyler Adams is reportedly on Nottingham Forest’s radar this summer. The Daily Mail claim Steve Cooper’s side could throw the USA international a Premier League lifeline as they look to bolster their ranks after their survival and he has emerged as a ‘target’ for the Reds. The 24-year-old has made a positive impression since moving to England last year.

Winger wanted in Germany

Luis Sinisterra is being linked with a switch to Bayer Leverkusen, as per a report from Colombian outlet El Deportivo. The Colombia international has made 22 appearances since moving to Yorkshire and has found the net seven times. His future is now up in air amid reported interest from the Bundesliga.

Robinson has say on Elland Road spell

Karl Robinson has admitted his spell with the Whites last term was an ‘impossible job’. The former MK Dons and Oxford United boss worked under Allardyce as number two and has said: “It was almost an impossible job but we all have that ego where we all think we can go in there and pull off a miracle. And that’s not naivety or stupidity, we actually did believe we could do it even though we knew it would be so difficult.”

Leeds will be up against it next season according to former player

David Prutton has warned his former club Leeds that they will be up against it next term with some strong Championship clubs waiting for them. He has written for the YEP: “There’s very good teams down there that are waiting for Leeds. After the post mortem they really have got to get their heads around it because once again, back in the Championship, every team will be absolutely gunning for them.”
