Manchester United's teenage starlet Adnan Januzaj has signed a new 5 year contract with the club. The deal comes after his man of the match display at Sunderland on the 5th of October. The Belgium-born winger is still choosing a nation to represent though and sources close to the player himself say that he is edging towards representing England. Talking about his new deal Januzaj stated: "It’s a great thrill to be able to sign for Manchester United. Since arriving here I have always felt like this was the right club for me. This season has been great for me – going on the pre season tour, making my debut in the Community Shield win at Wembley and then breaking into the team at Sunderland – it’s like a dream. I want to work hard now and establish myself as a Manchester United player."
Under fire United boss David Moyes has expressed his happiness on Januzaj committing his future to the club until June 2018. He said:"I'm delighted that Adnan has committed his future to United. He is an outstanding talent and has impressed me consistently since I came to United in July. His balance, poise and ability to beat players is truly exceptional for a boy of his age. It’s great that he recognises that this club, with its tradition for developing young players and giving them a chance on the biggest stage, is the best place for him to be."
Januzaj will be hoping to help his side collect all three points in today's clash with high flyers Southampton, who they welcome to Old Trafford at 3pm before welcoming Real Sociedad in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
