Man United News: Manchester United star signing Daniel James defeated his teammates in the pre-season fitness tests held at Carrington.
Manchester United recently signed Daniel James from Swansea this summer, and probably, it is one of the positives for the Red Devils’ fans as the Welsh International shows a great potential with his recent performances in the Championship.
James gained prominence after his blistering pace was noticed during his time with Swansea. Thus, it seems that the player has a lot in his kitty to be a significant player at Manchester United.
To support the claim, a report made by the Sun said that he has impressed everyone at Manchester United by his fitness test performances, since the result is keeping him abreast from the rest of his teammates.
The report further quotes a source from Manchester United, informing about the impression made by James at the club in his initial day at the club.
“The word from Carrington is very encouraging on young James. He is clearly ahead of the game. He has topped all the early fitness charts. Ole was impressed with seeing him doing his own work.”
“He did one fifty metre sprint that left team-mates five metres behind him and also maxing out the bleep test.” said the anonymous source.
It is further reported that James has been able to settle at the club very easily, and will debut for Manchester United during the pre-season tour.
The club and fans have certain expectations with the Welsh International, and with such reports of his fitness, the 21-year-old forward might stand up to them.
Although, the hype has to be controlled for some time, as James is yet to make a debut in the Premier league and showcase his talent at the tp flight level.
