Phil Hay teases potential new deals for two Elland Road star

Each Wilfred Gnonto and Tyler Adams might signal new offers at Leeds United following their relegation from the Premier League in keeping with Phil Hay

The pair have been two of the Yorkshire membership’s greatest performers final season because the facet suffered relegation from the highest flight.

Will Tyler Adams and Wilfred Gnonto play for Leeds United subsequent season?

Leeds will likely be hoping that each gamers keep on the membership.

The American and Italian internationals each arrived at Elland Street in the summertime of 2022 for £20m and £3.8m respectively, and each impressed in what was a disappointing marketing campaign for the membership.

Adams was extremely spectacular, along with his 6.73 common ranking on WhoScored being the best in the whole Leeds squad, while Sky Sports activities pundit Stephan Warnock was stuffed with reward after his Man of the Match efficiency towards Liverpool in October, saying: “Tyler Adams, what a efficiency! He isn’t a lovely participant on the attention that’s going to hit 50 to 60 yard diagonals. He’s not going to dictate the pace of play. However what he’s going to do, he’s going to be a menace and he’s going to be a participant who closes down extraordinarily properly. Magnificent efficiency from a particularly essential participant for Leeds.”

Gnonto additionally seemed shiny in his first season following his transfer from FC Zurich, with the 19-year-old managing eight goal contributions throughout all competitions for the Whites, with targets towards the likes of Manchester United and West Ham United exhibiting that the participant with promising potential might additionally ship. Former Leeds caretaker supervisor Michael Skubala heaped reward on the ahead after his show at Previous Trafford, stating: “He’s a fantastic lad, he’s a particular participant. He’s a credit score to Leeds, he’s a credit score to himself and he’s a very nice participant to work with.”

Each gamers have attracted curiosity from Premier League sides this window, with Adams reportedly a goal of Aston Villa, while Gnonto was the topic of a £15m bid from Everton which the membership rejected.

Talking on The Square Ball podcast, when requested whether or not Gnonton and Adams staying may very well be tied in with a brand new contract, Hay revealed that Leeds might be able to tie down each gamers to new offers: “I think so with Gnonto and probably with Adams as properly. I believe it must be some carrot with it to steer them that it was the correct factor to do. It’s barely totally different for Gnonto to Adams, they’re at totally different phases of their profession, Adams clearly USA captain already and has the World Cup developing, however I don’t essentially really feel that for both of them a extremely good season within the championship, a promotion 12 months within the championship would harm them or their popularity”

Ought to Adams and Gnonto keep at Leeds?

It may very well be useful for the duo to remain at Leeds this season

For Gnonto, curiosity from Everton could not signify the most important step ahead in his profession. The Toffees solely simply survived relegation on the final day of the season due to a 1-0 victory towards Bournemouth, and are expected to be in an identical state of affairs subsequent season, while Leeds might bounce straight again as much as the Premier League on the first time of asking. Finally it is going to come down as to whether Gnonto believes he must play Premier League soccer subsequent season, or whether or not a powerful season in England’s second tier will maintain him within the Italian nationwide workforce and maintain his improvement on monitor.

It is tougher in regard to Adams’ state of affairs, because the interest in him from Aston Villa and West Ham would give the USA worldwide the chance to return to enjoying European soccer in both the Europa League or the Convention League. The midfielder may be in line for extra common begins on the Hammers following the departure of membership captain Declan Rice for £105m, with the membership needing a substitute in his place, which Adams performed in final season for the Whites.

Leeds will likely be determined to maintain their star gamers as they provide them the most effective likelihood at bouncing straight again up from the championship, and new offers would just do that amid Premier League curiosity.
