United will pay Swansea £18million, including add-ons, for the 21-year-old Wales international, Press Association Sport understands.

“Manchester United is delighted to announce that it has agreed, in principle, terms with both Swansea and Daniel James for his transfer to the club,” a statement on the Premier League side’s official website read.
