However, the winger has now agreed a new contract with the Premier League champions and, speaking to the club’s official website, says he hopes to establish himself in the first team in the coming months:
“It’s a great thrill to be able to sign for Manchester United. Since arriving here I have always felt like this was the right club for me.
“This season has been great for me – going on the pre-season tour, making my debut in the Community Shield win at Wembley and then breaking into the team at Sunderland – it’s like a dream.
“I want to work hard now and establish myself as a Manchester United player.”
Manager David Moyes also said he is thrilled to have secured Januzaj’s services and says the future is bright for the youngster.
“I’m delighted that Adnan has committed his future to United. He is an outstanding talent and has impressed me consistently since I came to United in July.
“It’s great that he recognises that this club, with its tradition for developing young players and giving them a chance on the biggest stage, is the best place for him to be.”
The 18-year-old had joined United from Anderlecht two years ago and his current deal was set to run out at the end of this season.
