Tyler Adams, RB Leipzig centremidfielder, is very much liked by Sevilla as an option to replace Fernando. However, the Spanish side are not the only ones interested in him. Jesse Marsch's Leeds are also after the 23 year old.

Sevilla are looking for a new defensive centremidfileder due to Fernando's injury complications. The Brazilian is one of Sevilla's key men but the club have a gut feeling that he will not be able to get back to his old self, especially considering the fact that he is going to turn 35 next month.

Because of this, Monchi has been working on monitoring a player to whom the ex Manchester City man can pass on the batton. The technical secretary's favoured player is Tyler Adams, RB Leipzig centremidfielder.

At just 23 years old, the American has been noticed for his versatility in the middle third of the pitch and for his physical condition. The issue that the Andalusian club is that the North American player has also caught the attention from a Premier League club. According to British journalist, David Ornstein, Leeds United have enquired about Adams.

The ex New York Red Bull player appeared in 24 Bundesliga matches last season and, according to BeSoccer Pro, the American centremidfielder has a current market value of 25.6 million euros.
