Leeds United have been linked with a move for Southampton’s Che Adams in the summer.
The former Birmingham City striker will be available on a free transfer in the summer, when his contract with the Saints comes to an end.
Teamtalk have linked Leeds with a move for the forward, although a move for Adams will likely be dependent on the club winning promotion to the Premier League this season.
Adams has scored 13 times already this season, while also contributing three assists in the league. Considering he has only started half of his sides matches in the Championship, this shows how good he can be when given a chance in the team.

The Whites have been embroiled in a promotion battle this season, and it will go down to the wire to decide which two out of Leeds, Leicester City and Ipswich Town will be playing in the top flight next season.
Che Adams would be a no-brainer signing for Leeds
FLW’s Leeds fan pundit Kris Smith believes that Adams would be a great signing for the club, although notes that the club will need to win promotion in order to secure his signature.
He claims Adams would be an improvement on Patrick Bamford, and would give the club some much needed depth up front for the first time in years.
