All roads lead to Leeds for Daniel James. Recruited at the very end of the summer transfer window by the Peacocks, who paid around € 29 million to Manchester United, the 23-year-old Welsh winger was one of the collateral victims of the arrival of Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo this summer at Old Trafford, without forgetting the return on loan of a Jesse Lingard found in recent months.

If he played two of the Red Devils first three games in the Premier League this season (he was part of the inaugural ride against Leeds, 5-1), as if to increase his odds in the market and put him in before to better sell him, the native of Beverley joins a trainer that he was already on the verge of knowing two years ago and a club with which he already has a particular indirect experience.

Because Daniel James was already very close to joining Leeds United. It was in January 2019, already under the leadership of the former OM coach. At the time, the Welsh international (25 caps, 4 goals) played with Swansea City, in the Championship, and he caught the eye of El Loco. The leaders of the Whites then made every effort to meet the needs of their coach with the well-known football vision. But after he had traveled to Leeds to initial his contract, and photos of him with the white jersey had even leaked at the time, the Swans and their (now ex) president Huw Jenkins decided to go back.
