Albania coach De Biasi hopes for talks with Man Utd starlet Januzaj

Albania coach Gianni De Biasi admits he'd love to convince Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj to commit his international future to them.

But the Italian says he has an easier time getting hold of Pope Francis than reaching the father of Januzaj.

"We're stuck. We just don't know," De Biasi said on Thursday.

"I and the heads of the federation have made every effort to contact him but the problem is his father, who does not give us even a normal answer.

"By the way, I find it easier to get in touch with Pope Francis than Abedin Januzaj."
