Man Utd winger James: I was never a Liverpool fan

Manchester United winger, Daniel James, has denied claims of growing up a Liverpool fan.

The 23-year-old recalled how a Sky Sports pundit claimed he was a Reds fan as a youngster.

But James actually grew up a Chelsea supporter and he said: “When I signed for United, I can’t remember who it was, one of the Sky Sports [pundits] said: ‘he supports Liverpool’.

“I was thinking I don’t support Liverpool, but I never wanted to come out and say I supported Chelsea as a youngster.

“When I started playing for Swansea it [Chelsea] was the team I followed, but you don’t end up supporting them really.”
