Leeds United were very happy to finally confirm the signing of Dan James on Tuesday. Leeds had come close to signing James from Swansea 2 years ago but now they eventually have their man.

It can always be daunting moving to a new club but it seems as though James has had a very warm welcome to Elland Road by some of the Leeds players. James obviously knows Tyler Roberts from their time at Wales over the last few years, but it turns out Leeds captain Liam Cooper has also reached out to James.

“Liam Cooper has texted me a few times” James confirmed in an interview shortly after confirmation of the signing, and it’s nice to see that he’s been welcomed so well by the skipper.

We hope that James will have an instant impact at Leeds. His first game is likely to be against Liverpool at Elland Road on the 12th of September.
