Premier League: Leeds sign winger Dan James from Manchester United: Leeds United have signed Welsh winger Daniel James from Manchester United on a five-year deal, the Premier League clubs announced on Tuesday.

Financial details of the deal were not disclosed but British media reported the transfer was worth 24 million pounds ($33.11 million).

“It is no secret that Daniel James is a player we have been keen to acquire for a number of years and today we achieved our goal,” said Victor Orta, director of football at Leeds.

“As a player we feel Daniel is an excellent fit for a Marcelo Bielsa team, he is quick, direct and works hard — we look forward to him joining up with the squad, finally!”

James was signed by United in 2019 from Swansea City for some 18 million pounds and made 33 league appearances in his debut season but the 23-year-old has seen his playing time reduced since.
