Manchester United forward Daniel James is seeing early signs of what he hopes can be a special on the pitch connection with his club mate Bruno Fernandes.
The 24-year-old midfielder made his move to the Theatre Of Dreams towards the end of the January transfer window after a protracted saga with Portuguese outfit Sporting CP culminated in a deal worth up to €80million in the winter.
The midfield gem won praise for largely positive display as he made his debut in United’s 0-0 draw at Old Trafford with Wolves on February 1st and is now with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s squad at a training camp in southern Spain having their mid-season break.
Welsh winger James feels that Fernandes is already settling in impressively and thinks the game against Wolves provided an indication of a potentially productive connection between the two attackers.
While speaking to the club’s official website, the 22-year-old heaped praise on his new teammate explaining that Fernandes is settling in well with the rest of the club and expects a formidable partnership in the near future, “He is settling in great, I know quite a few of the boys speak his language and he speaks great English as well. As soon as he came in he put his stamp on the game and he showed what he is about in that last game, on his debut. He was great, with the balls he played in behind and, for me, if we can get that bond, especially playing it in behind, I think that will be great.”
