Leeds United chief executive Angus Kinnear says he doesn't believe that U.S. men's national team star Tyler Adams handled his departure the right way.
“I respect all players’ desire to play at the highest level,” Kinnear said. “They have short careers and they should have the opportunity, should they want to, to play at the highest level.
“To be fair to [Adams and Sinisterra], when they bought into the Leeds United project, one of the things that we sell to players is that ‘you’re joining ateam who are on a trajectory where we’re going to be consistent Premier League performers.’ They didn’t want to join a Championship side." “However, I think there are ways you can handle your desire to play at the highest level. From a personal perspective I don’t think either of those two players handled it particularly well. You need to approach it through discussion and trying to get to mutual agreement … I don’t think it’s a way to behave towards a club that’s looked after you.”
