- Adams known for on-field intensity
- Put in great shift against Man Utd
- A gentler person off the pitch
WHAT HAPPENED? Adams sent a social media message to his fans on Tuesday afternoon along with a selfie in which he's holding his thumb up. Leeds, the club he joined last summer, posted a video compilation of some of his best tackles in its birthday note.
"Thanks so much for all the birthday love!" Adams wrote. "Hope you all have a good Valentine’s Day."
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Leeds recently signed Adams' USMNT teammate Weston McKennie on loan from Juventus, and the Americans are enjoying their time together so far.
But after the firing of Jesse Marsch, the Whites are in an uncertain period with their coaching staff amid a relegation battle.
WHAT NEXT FOR ADAMS? The birthday boy is expected to be in the lineup when Leeds go up against Everton in the Premier League on Saturday.
