Daniel James will be looking to hit the ground running following his summer switch to Manchester United .
The Welsh winger made the move to Old Trafford after the Red Devils agreed a deal worth up to £18million with Swansea City.
James penned a long-term contract at United but he will be aiming to force his way into manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's starting XI.
He is not due to report for pre-season training until next month but the 21-year-old wants to make a big impression on his new boss.
The former Hull starlet is on holiday in Dubai but is looking to get a head start on his team-mates by taking in some intense training sessions.
James has been put through his paces by Kaizen 3 Performance , who provide special coaching for footballers.
The wide man has uploaded shared footage on his Instagram account of him training in 39-degree heat, and his commitment to the cause will endear himself to United fans.
"I think the ambition they've got for the club is amazing for the next few years – to get players in who are hungry and ready to work hard," said James after putting pen to paper.
"I believe [in] that and I'm one of those players. I'm willing to work hard. It's a challenge I’m looking forward to."
He is is the only summer arrival so far, while United are interested in Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Harry Maguire.
However, Juan Mata looks set to extend his stay at the club.
The 31-year-old moved to Old Trafford from Chelsea in 2014, becoming a popular figure within the dressing room and the support base.
Mata's current deal at United expires at the end of June but it is understood negotiations over a new deal have gone positively.
The attack-minded midfielder has scored 45 goals in 218 appearances for United and a new contract will be a boost for a club in the midst of change.
Combative midfielder Ander Herrera and captain Antonio Valencia are leaving on free transfers, while there are questions marks over a number of other key players.
Paul Pogba is keen for a "new challenge" and Romelu Lukaku would welcome an Old Trafford exit, while question marks remain over the future of Alexis Sanchez and David De Gea.
