Tyler Adams
26-Year-Old
AFC Bournemouth
Premier
OUT
Injury Knee
Est. Return 2/21/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Injuries cost Adams the first couple months of the season, but once he was fit he quickly earned starting minutes in holding midfield. While he didn't top 2,000 minutes he showed his quality and earned more minutes as the seasons progressed, forming a nice pairing with Ryan Christie at the base of the midfield. He added three assists, though he's a true defensive midfielder, with just 18 chances created and nine shots. Adams will be a rock-solid starter next season, with limited offensive upside.
Getting closer
Adams (knee) is expected to return to team training Monday, but Tuesday's clash against Everton may come too soon, head coach Andoni Iraola said in a press conference, according to Alexander Smith of the Bournemouth Echo. "Tyler will train today. Maybe it's early for tomorrow, but he's getting closer."
ANALYSIS
Adams has been sidelined since mid-December with an MCL injury but is now closing in on a comeback, with a return to full team training scheduled for Monday. Tuesday's matchup against Everton may come a bit too soon, but head coach Andoni Iraola hasn't ruled him out during the presser, hinting that Adams could make the squad if he responds well in training. Once fully fit, Adams is expected to immediately regain his undisputed starting spot in the heart of the Cherries' midfield.

Suffers MCL injury
Adams suffered a knee twist, likely a MCL injury in Monday's 4-4 draw against Manchester United and could miss the rest of the year, coach Andoni Iraola said in a press conference, according to the Bournemouth Echo. "I think it's the worst news from the game, definitely. I think he has a knee twist. I think it's just the MCL. But we have to check him and see if it's just a small sprain or something bigger. It's just a clear play. Obviously it's not what you want in, I think it was the second or third minute, to lose a player like Tyler for us, it's massive."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Red Devils showing interest
Manchester United could make a move for Adams in the January transfer window, according to The Daily Mail.
ANALYSIS
Adams suffered a knee injury in the 4-4 draw against Manchester United on Dec. 15 and is expected to miss the rest of the calendar year. The Red Devils have been impressed with Adams' displays for the Cherries, and since the Red Devils need to sign a new midfielder, a move for Adams makes perfect sense. It's unclear if Bournemouth will be open to part ways with the USMNT star, though.
