Southampton striker Che Adams is not for sale – that’s according to the Southern Daily Echo’s sports journalist Dan Sheldon. Leeds United are said to still be hopeful of landing the 23-year-old despite Ralph Hasenhuttl reiterating the fact he has no intentions of selling the player just a couple of days ago.

This is one of those transfer stories that started right at the beginning of the window and isn’t expected to cool until the deadline passes despite the players club being clear regarding their stance.

Sheldon has spoken of the growing sense of bemusement at St Mary’s and these Leeds supporters have taken to social media to make their feelings on the subject known.

Will Leeds United complete a deal for Che Adams this month?

Yes

Yes

No

No

One fan even stated that he wants the move big time, which perhaps came from a report that Phil Hay released back on the 13th of this month (January 2020), which stated that Che Adams is keen to take the move to Elland Road.

What do we think?

For Leeds to continue pursuing the former Birmingham City striker, they must for whatever reason still believe that a deal is possible. The player is currently valued at £10.8m (as per Transfermarkt.co.uk) despite only starting 33% of Southampton’s Premier League games this season.

With Southampton seemingly safe now after an upturn in form over the last month or so, if a significant bid was to come in towards the end of the window, you would be forgiven for thinking they would consider it carefully given Adams is currently their second choice striker at best – with Danny Ings currently leading the line and firing on all cylinders.
