Leeds United new signing Tyler Adams drops Brenden Aaronson squad number hint

Tyler Adams enjoyed some banter with his new team-mates and fellow United states international Brenden Aaronson. LUTV shared a video of Adams in the changing room at Thorp Arch sharing an embrace with fellow American Jack Harrison.

The midfielder then points to Aaronson's shirt number after greeting the winger, before asking Harrison why he didn't pick the number seven shirt. The Whites are yet to announce their official squad numbers for next season, but the number seven was previously held by Ian Poveda who spent last season on loan with Blackburn Rovers.

"Jack, you didn't take this number, bro? Seven?," Adams said, while pointing at his club and country teammate Aaronson's chest.

Aaronson is quick to play down the banter before the video cuts to Jesse Marsch greeting the new arrival. It's the third time in Adams' career that he's worked with the Leeds head coach, having worked together at New York Red Bulls and RB Leipzig.

Adams then greets more of the Whites' squad in the physio room before having an assessment with one of the club doctors and then his medical. Fellow new arrival Aaronson then introduces Adams' to Rasmus Kristensen before continuing his medical.

Speaking about his first day at Thorp Arch, Adams says: "I loved it, the banter - everything."
