Januzaj heading for exit

ADNAN Januzaj (pictured below) is heading towards the Old Trafford exit as Manchester United consider a number of offers for the winger, it is understood.

Having flourished after being given a first-term role by then United manager David Moyes, the 22-year-old's star has faded over the years.

Januzaj returned early from an ill-fated loan spell at Borussia Dortmund during the 2015-16 campaign and endured a turbulent season-long stint at Sunderland last term.

It is understood the Belgium international is now set to leave Old Trafford on a permanent basis, with Real Sociedad understood to be among the clubs speaking to United about a deal.

CONTRACT

Januzaj has a year left on his contract and United are reported to be looking at a fee in the region of £10million, as well as an option to re-sign the player if he flourishes. A similar clause was part of the deal that took Memphis Depay to Lyon in January.

The winger was part of the 25-man squad taken to China on last year's pre-season tour, but did not do enough to show Jose Mourinho he merited a first-team role.

Januzaj subsequently linked up again with Moyes at Sunderland in a campaign that not only ended in relegation but the loanee being jeered by his own fans.
