Tyler Adams has finally made his Bournemouth debut, coming on as a sub in the 70th minute of Wednesday’s Carabao Cup match against Stoke City.
With Bournemouth leading 2-0, Adams was introduced in place of Lewis Cook at the Vitality Stadium. The Cherries would go on to win by that scoreline, and were paired with Liverpool in the tournament’s round of 16.
The U.S. men’s national team captain completed a move from Leeds to Bournemouth worth a reported $25 million last month, but has been sidelined with a long-term hamstring injury.
Adams has not played since March after undergoing hamstring surgery, which ended his first season at Leeds prematurely. The club would ultimately be relegated at season’s end.
The 24-year-old was named to the bench for the first time this season against Stoke, after head coach Andoni Iraola said last week that the midfielder had returned to partial training with the Cherries.
