The 28-year-old forward saw his Southampton contract expire at the conclusion of the latest season, sparking discussions with the Saints regarding a potential extension that ultimately did not come to fruition. This led to a flurry of interest from multiple Premier League clubs, with Wolverhampton Wanderers and Everton among the suitors vying for his signature. Leeds also threw their hat into the ring, although their inability to secure promotion to the Premier League seemed to diminish their chances of securing his services.
Despite the strong interest from several top-flight English clubs, reports from the BBC now suggest that Adams has made the decision to venture outside of English football for the first time in his career. It is reported that he has reached an agreement with Serie A side Torino and is slated to undergo a medical examination on July 22.
For Adams, this move to Serie A marks another significant milestone in his professional journey. Beginning his career in non-league football with clubs such as Oadby Town and Ilkeston, he eventually caught the attention of Sheffield United before moving on to successful spells at Birmingham City and Southampton. Leeds had reportedly harbored a longstanding interest in the Scotland international, particularly during the reign of manager Marcelo Bielsa, but it now appears that his future lies on Italian soil with Torino.
