Januzaj encouraged to leave Man Utd

Former Manchester United winger Keith Gillespie fears for the future of Adnan Januzaj. Gillespie can see the Belgian leaving - whether it's on-loan or permanently.

He told talkSPORT: "Unfortunately, with the embarrassment of riches Manchester United have at the moment, he's not first choice.

"He's still young though and is learning the game. He needs games to bring out his potential.

"Last season was very poor for United, but he was probably the one shining light in a team which didn't perform.

"Just look at the players in the team now, the likes of Angel di Maria, Juan Mata, Wayne Rooney, Robin van Persie and Radamel Falcao.

"He's a winger and I'm not sure he can adapt and play as a wing back. He needs to play further forward. It's very difficult to fit him in to the system."
