Daniel James� arrival at Leeds United in 2021 from Manchester United marked the end of a long transfer saga, which initially saw a failed deadline day move from Swansea in 2019. Known for his lightning pace and relentless pressing, James brought much-needed speed to Leeds' attack. His first season at the club saw mixed performances as he was often deployed in different roles across the forward line.

James spent the 2022/23 season on loan at Fulham during Leeds� relegation season. Now back at Elland Road, James is playing a vital role in the Championship, using his speed to torment defenses and help Leeds push for a return to the top flight. His ability to play on either wing or as a forward makes him a valuable option in attack.
