Man United Signs Swansea Winger For £15m

Man United have completed the signing of Swansea City attacker Daniel James in a deal worth £15 million ($19m).

Daniel James arrives at Old Trafford after catching the eye with some explosive performances at Championship level for the Swans.

It was reported that the 21-year-old has signed 5 years contract for Man United and has become Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s first addition since his arrival as manager in December 2018.

James lit up the Championship in 2018-19, scoring five goals and assisting 10 more in 38 appearances in all competitions.

The winger made a huge impact in this year’s FA Cup, scoring a memorable individual goal against Brentford in the fifth round. Before putting in a stellar display as Swansea succumbed to a narrow defeat against Manchester City in the quarter-finals.

He was also handed his first two caps for Wales, scoring in his second appearance against Slovakia in March.

Manchester United have released an official statement confirming James’s arrival via their club website on Friday, which reads:

“Manchester United is delighted to announce that it has agreed, in principle, terms with both Swansea City and Daniel James for his transfer to the club

“Daniel has successfully completed a medical at the Aon Training Complex. Further details will be communicated once the international transfer window opens next week.”
