Leeds frontrunners for Dan James deal this month – MEN
Leeds United are the frontrunners to sign Manchester United winger Dan James, according to Samuel Luckhurst.
The Manchester Evening News reporter has shared the update as Premier League clubs line up to secure his signature.
Ole Gunnar Solskjear is working to offload two attackers in the next 24 hours after the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo.
There have been contrasting reports over what type of deal this would be.
Initially, The Athletic reported that the Whites have the funds to secure a £20million+ deal for James before tomorrows’ deadline.
It appears as though it would be a loan move, though.
The Sun have reported that Leeds have been told to make an offer for the winger, after making a pitch to secure his services.
Make the first move.
Marcelo Bielsa is a long-term admirer of James, and no doubt he will be pushing the Whites to secure this transfer.
That will also appeal to the winger, who will no doubt desire to be wanted after being shown the exit door despite two starts already this season.
It is all down to Orta now, who will be determined to secure this one after his failure to bring Conor Gallagher to Elland Road as he decided to join Crystal Palace instead.
The Elland Road faithful are crying out for reinforcements before tomorrow’s deadline after our slow start, and it looks as though James could be the man.
