Here are the latest Leeds United morning headlines on Thursday, 27 October 2022.
Adams interest
Manchester United are reportedly keeping an eye on the situation of Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams. That is according to Football Insider, who claim the Red Devils have had a long-term interest in Adams and is continuing to be 'monitored' as they remain in the market for a new midfielder.
Adams only made the switch to Elland Road in the summer and put pen-to-paper on a five-year-deal upon his arrival from Red Bull Leipzig. The 23-year-old has made an impressive start to life in the Premier League, slotting nicely into Leeds' midfield and playing every minute of every game until Sunday's defeat to Fulham.
Presser agenda
Jesse Marsch faces the media on Thursday afternoon for his pre-match press conference. The Leeds United head coach will take questions from television, radio, print and online journalists at Thorp Arch ahead of the Liverpool visit on Saturday.

Here is a run-down of some of the main topics on the agenda for the American to address at the training ground today.
Orta January
Insignificant as it may seem with Jesse Marsch hanging onto his job by his fingernails and Leeds United bearing down on three final chances for momentum before the World Cup, the January transfer window cannot be ignored. Whether it’s alongside Marsch or not, Victor Orta has work to do.
United’s head coach going into January is integral to the business Orta does, but whether Marsch recovers from his precarious current position or he is replaced, the director of football knows this squad needs strengthening. A positive start has given way to an eight-match winless run which has put the Whites in the bottom three and at real peril of relegation if nothing changes.
Marsch will look to bring about that change to the best of his ability on the training ground, but Leeds cannot afford to be inactive in the next transfer window on this evidence. At the start of this year, Leeds were on a run of two wins in 11 matches with a squad so savaged by injury and Covid they named Kris Moore, Liam McCarron, Jack Jenkins, Nohan Kenneh and Archie Gray among their substitutes in the Premier League.
