Manchester United transfer news: Daniel James exactly the kind of signing they should be making, Simon Jordan tells talkSPORT
Simon Jordan believes the signing of Daniel James from Swansea is the positive change of direction Manchester United needed after years of silly spending.The 21-year-old Swansea winger is expected to become Ole Gunnar Solskjaers first summer signing after agreeing a 15million transfer from the Welsh club.2James has been hailed as an old-school signing for United due to his lightning pace on the flank, and has been tipped for a bright future at Old Trafford.Former Crystal Palace owner Jordan believes the young Welshman may struggle for first-team football initially, just like Wilfried Zaha did when he left the Eagles to join United in 2013.But Jordan believes his imminent arrival at Old Trafford is a massive step in the right direction for the club, having blown millions on flopped big-money signings in recent years. I think this is exactly the kind of move Manchester United should be making, Jordan told talkSPORT on Thursday.I think United are going to spend an unprecedented amount of money this summer to be able to bridge the gap, and its a risk because think theyve got the wrong manager in place.I also think this move is a risk for the young player to take his career and maybe find himself on the periphery of the first team for a significant part of the season.James celebrates his winning goal for Wales in a Euro 2020 qualifier against Slovakia back in MarchGetty Images2

Ive had young players who have moved to big clubs that it halted their career. Theres a dynamic with this young player that he hasnt really earned his stripes, he hasnt really learned the game, he hasnt played enough to be able to land at a place like Manchester United.But behind every football club there has to be a balance. You have to have these young, energetic and vibrant young footballers that want to be part of a next generation like the Class of 92 who became the next generation of Manchester United.I also think theres a balance between getting younger players alongside seasoned inspirational pros who are at the top of their game.

Money well spent?

Man Uniteds big-money signings over last five years:
  • Paul Pogba – 94m
  • Romelu Lukaku – 76m
  • ngel Di Mara – 67m
  • Anthony Martial – 54m
  • Fred – 53m
  • Juan Mata – 40m
  • Nemanja Matic – 40m
  • Henrikh Mkhitaryan – 37m
Source: TransfermarktTheres nothing wrong with buying 90m footballers, besides the lunacy of it but thats just the market now, its everything wrong with buying 90m players like Pogba who have got far too much to say for themselves and dont want to fit into the culture of the club.So, I think this is a step in the right direction for Manchester United.
