Weah (left) and Adams (right) are teammates with the USA national team and started together in the New York Red Bulls' academyCeltic loan signing Timothy Weah is a "dynamic" player who is "not afraid of any situation", says close friend and United States team-mate Tyler Adams. RB Leipzig midfielder Adams, 19, played with 18-year-old Weah from age 13 at New York Red Bulls' academy. Adams believes Weah, who has joined Celtic on loan from Paris St-Germain until the summer, can thrive. "You could throw him in to a big game and a big scenario and he'll always try and come out on top," he said. Born in New York, Weah spent a year with the Red Bulls' academy before joining PSG's youth set-up as a 14-year-old in 2014.
