- Personal terms already agreed with Wales forward
- Leeds nearly signed James on loan two years ago
Leeds are set to sign Daniel James from Manchester United for £24m, more than two years after they almost signed him on loan.
Despite starting the victory against Wolves on Sunday, the Wales forward has been used sparingly at Old Trafford under Ole Gunnar Solskjær and the impending arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus means the 23-year-old will be even further down the pecking order after United also signed Jadon Sancho for £73m from Borussia Dortmund.
