Daniel James
27-Year-Old
Leeds United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
James is set to return to the Premier League with Leeds United after he scored 12 times and added nine assists last season in the Championship. It's encouraging production in the second tier, but James has previously shown an inability to produce near the same output in the Premier League. The winger has improved during his time with Leeds United and will get plenty of chances in the starting XI, but a loss of set pieces last season won't help in production. He might be most likely to hit 10 goal contributions for Leeds, but anything more than that would be surprising.
Inks long-term deal
James has signed a new long-term contract with Leeds, according to his club.
ANALYSIS
James is sticking around Elland Road for a few more seasons, with the attacker signing a long-term contract for four seasons. He was a regular starter for the club last season, likely leading to this extension. With 30 starts in 36 appearances to go along with 12 goals and 9 assists last campaign, he will look to maintain that role.
