Adnan Januzaj born 5 February 1995) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a winger for English club Manchester United. Born in Brussels, he began his career with Anderlecht before joining Manchester United in 2011 at the age of 16. Januzaj made his full international debut in 2014 and later that year played for Belgium at the World Cup.
Club career
Januzaj began his football career with FC Brussels but joined Anderlecht as a 10-year-old in 2005.[5] He left Anderlecht for Manchester United at the age of 16 in March 2011 after impressing in a skills session in Brussels.
International career
Januzaj was eligible to represent Belgium (through being born there and having a Belgian passport), Albania (through his ethnic Albanian heritage) and Turkey (through his mother's family deported to Turkey). He is also eligible to represent Kosovo in international football; although Kosovo does not have a FIFA-affiliated senior team, it does have a FIFA-sanctioned youth team that plays in non-FIFA and non-confederation tournaments and exhibition games against full FIFA members. In October 2013, England manager Roy Hodgson stated that The Football Association were monitoring the player with a view to calling him up after he had attained residency status in the United Kingdom.[27] However, despite widespread press coverage, Januzaj would not meet the requirements to play for England under the unique rules set out in the Home Nations agreement.[28] The Home Nations agreement requires that players engage in a minimum of five years of education before the age of 18 within the territory of the relevant association and do not offer national team eligibility through residency.Career statistics
