I nearly gave up football when I was 12 - Man Utd star James

The winger has impressed with three goals in five Premier League games for the Red Devils, even though he wanted to quit the game as a child

Manchester United winger Daniel James almost walked away from football as a child because he "wasn't enjoying it".

The 21-year-old has had a great start to life at Old Trafford since joining from Swansea City in the close-season.

The winger opened his United account on his Premier League debut, coming off the bench to score the final goal as his side beat Chelsea 4-0 in the opening game of the season.
