Januzaj to tell Man Utd boss Mourinho he wants permanent transfer over loan

Adnan Januzaj is eager to hold showdown talks with Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho.

According to The Sun, the Belgian winger is keen to sort out his future at Old Trafford and will reportedly tell the new Red Devils manager that he wants regular game time or else he will leave.

Januzaj experienced a difficult loan spell with Borussia Dortmund last season, which was cut short in January, and would rather be sold permanently this summer than be loaned out temporarily again.

The 21-year-old fears he will fall further down the United pecking order following the arrival of Henrik Mkhitaryan this week, and wants assurances over his future.

It is believed that Mourinho wants to send him on loan to another Premier League club but wants an option included in the deal that allows United to recall the player if he is not receiving enough minutes elsewhere.
