Manchester United in talks with Swansea Over Daniel James
Manchester
United are talking to Swansea about Wales winger Daniel James, but a fee is yet
to be agreed.
James, 21,
has been targeted by a number of Premier League teams.
And United
are hopeful of completing a deal for a player given his international debut in
November by Old Trafford legend Ryan Giggs.
James came
close to joining the Swans' Championship rivals Leeds United in January, but a
potential deadline-day move fell through.
Manchester
United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is targeting younger players in particular
this summer as he looks to improve on a sixth-placed finish last season.
Dan James'
rise has been meteoric - almost as quick as his pace on the pitch.
After a
quiet start to Swansea's season, James' form since the turn of the year has
been breathtaking for club and country.
His prized
asset is searing speed, best used when he cuts in from the flank.
James'
length of field dash to score in the FA Cup fifth round tie with Brentford
brought him national exposure and he proved a handful to Manchester City in the
quarter final, too.
His
spectacular strike to win Wales' opening Euro 2020 qualifier with Slovakia
added to his burgeoning reputation and impressed manager Ryan Giggs, perhaps no
better man to provide a reference to those in charge at Old Trafford.
