Manchester United have agreed a £15m deal to sign Swansea City winger Daniel James with the Welshman set to become Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s first signing.
The 21-year-old has been tipped to make the move to Old Trafford over the past couple of weeks and now appears to be close to completing the switch. According to Sky Sports, James has already agreed personal terms with the club.
Following a poor end to the season which saw the attitude of a number of established players questioned, Solskjaer has set his sights on securing hungry young players for next season.
James fits the bill having exploded onto the scene for Swansea in the Championship this season, scoring four goals and providing seven assists in 33 league appearances. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is prepared to ring the changes at Old Trafford this summer (Picture: Getty)
Although the Welsh international has predominantly played in a wide left role for the Swans, the Daily Mail reports that he has been earmarked to start on the right for Solskjaer’s side.
United are also reported to have beaten competition from Everton, Newcastle United and Brighton – now managed by James’ former manager at Swansea Graham Potter – to his signature.
