Manchester United’s data department love Tyler Adams, summer move possible | OneFootball

Manchester United’s data department love Bournemouth midfielder Tyler Adams, according to the Daily Mail’s Nathan Salt.

The Red Devils want to strengthen in the middle of the park this summer as they prepare for life without Casemiro.

Manuel Ugarte is also expected to leave, and Adams is on their radar despite not being a top target.

The 27-year-old ‘great leader‘ has been one of the best players in his position this term, and Man United’s analysts are huge admirers.

“United’s data department love Tyler Adams,” Salt said. “Anybody you speak to says he scores highly on this metric and that metric.

“They are adamant that statistically the analytics show that he is really good and they have liked him for a while.

“He is one name that I don’t think is going to go away until United get their business done.

“I’m not saying they’ll get him, but if he were the first one through the door, you would have people having meltdowns.”

Adams has featured in 22 league games for Bournemouth this term, weighing in with two goals and two assists.

Tackles and interceptions are amongst his biggest strengths, and his leadership ability could also come in handy for the Red Devils.

United have been linked with Brighton & Hove Albion’s Carlos Baleba, Nottingham Forest’s Elliot Anderson and Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton in the position.

However, Adams could be cheaper, as around £40 million may be sufficient to secure his signing.
