Mistake sales of £25m man to Leeds United
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits Manchester United may have made a mistake selling Dan James to Leeds United when they did. James spent two seasons as a player at Old Trafford, joining the club from Swansea City in 2019 and making 74 appearances, including 50 in the Premier League.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo’s return to Manchester in 2021 spelt the end of his career with the Red Devils. The Yorkshire-born Wales international found himself down the pecking order under Solskjaer and he was subsequently allowed to leave the club as he joined Leeds, two and a half years after he saw a deal to link up with Marcelo Bielsa’s side fall through.
