FA chairman Dyke opens England door to Man Utd's Januzaj

FA chairman Greg Dyke has left the door open to England capping Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj.

The youngster is at the centre of the debate over what qualifies a player for a country.

"My view is that we should be looking for talent and then look at what the rules actually say, and then ask if we can actually do this," Dyke said. "We live in a world where all sorts of people live in all sorts of places - let's see if he qualifies to play for England.

"If it takes five years for him to qualify, it's probably not going to happen. But you have to look at what's happened in cricket, what's happened in other sports and in other countries and see if we can do the same thing in football."
