Leeds United are keeping tabs on Southampton striker Che Adams in the final hours of the January transfer window, according to reporter Alex Crook.

The Lowdown: Three in

The Whites have been very productive so far in January, with Weston McKennie becoming the third first-team addition of the month under Andrea Radrizzani and Victor Orta.

The USA midfielder has joined defender Max Wober and forward Georginio Rutter at Elland Road, with Leeds officials bolstering a number of areas of the pitch for Jesse Marsch. It seems as if the club could be open to further business, though, as they have been named in an update on Adams.

The Latest: Adams speculation

Crook shared a story for talkSPORT on Monday, looking at Adams’ future. He said that Leeds are keeping tabs on his situation and Everton are also long-term admirers of the forward.

However, the reporter claims that Southampton will not entertain any bids for the Scotland international before tonight's 11pm deadline.

The Verdict: Things can change…

As we know, anything can happen between now and 11pm, so there could be a chance that Leeds test Southampton’s resolve with an offer for Adams, who Ralph Hasenhuttl has hailed for having a 'fantastic' attitude.

The 26-year-old appears to be at the top of his game with a career-high €22m (£19.3m) Transfermarkt valuation and can play anywhere across the front three. He also has plenty of Premier League experience under his belt, contributing to 37 goals in 115 appearances in the top flight.

He has been heavily linked with a move to Elland Road over the last 12 months, so if the Whites decide to sell Jack Harrison - as has been speculated - perhaps Adams could be viewed as his replacement, making this possibly one to watch.
