- Injuries have held midfielder back
- Made just four appearances in 2023-24
- Hoping to figure for his country at home event
WHAT HAPPENED?
The 25-year-old midfielder has figured more prominently at international level than he has in domestic football over the course of the last 12 months. Adams netted a stunning final goal as the United States savoured CONCACAF Nations League glory in March, but has continued to struggle with injury.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
On the back of a 2023 transfer from Leeds to Bournemouth, Adams took in just four appearances across the campaign in England that has just come to a close. No risks are being taken on his fitness, with the plan being to make more of an impact with the Cherries in 2024-25.
DID YOU KNOW?
There are more national team commitments to take in before then, with the USMNT counting down the days to a Copa America tournament on home soil. Adams is hoping to make the final cut there, but is making the most of an opportunity to unwind with his partner Sarah Schmidt and their young son before discovering whether he has been included in Gregg Berhalter’s latest squad.
WHAT NEXT FOR ADAMS?
Adams has been keeping himself ticking over by taking to the court, rather than the field, with the odd game of tennis helping to get the blood pumping. The 2024 Copa America is set to get underway on June 20, with the likes of Argentina and Brazil expected to compete with the United States for top honours.
