The red half of Manchester, Manchester United, have already completed three big signings this summer and now, the reports from Sky Sports have revealed that the Devils are edging closer and closer to complete the most awaited deal to sign Paul Pogba.
According to the same source, Paul Pogba is enjoying his last few days of the vacation, and soon after that, the 23-year-old will be traveling to England to complete the most expensive deal of the sport. Even though Pogba hasn’t said anything concrete about the move, many believe that the deal is far from done.
Even after Pogba’s arrival, a major overhaul is expected at the Theatre of Dreams as the manager will be looking to offload many players from the current squad. Now, according to the recent reports from Daily Mail, Jose Mourinho is ready to listen offers for Andreas Pereira, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Will Keane and Tyler Blackett.
On the other hand, Cameron Borthwick-Jackson, James Wilson, and Paddy McNair will be allowed out on loan though Wilson may yet opt to stay. But besides all of them, two players from the squad, Marouane Fellaini, and Adnan Januzaj, have been constantly linked with a move to the Black Cats, Sunderland, soon after they appointed David Moyes as their head coach.
Fellaini was bought by David Moyes at the Theatre of Dreams during his time at the Old Trafford and the towering Belgian failed to replicate his Everton form and eventually gained a name, Failure Fellaini. On the other hand, the Scottish manager gave Adnan Januzaj his first start for the club, and the Belgian international scored twice as United came from behind to claim a 2–1 victory away to Sunderland.
After his brilliant performance, the 21-year-old was nominated for the BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year only after playing 10 games for the side. The Belgian went on to score four goals in that season, but soon after Moyes was sacked and Louis van Gaal came with his 250 million signings, Januzaj’s career with the club came in doubt. For further development, he was sent to Borussia Dortmund, but due to his bad attitude towards the manager, his season long loan was cut short.
As soon as the Manchester United faced a transition under van Gaal, the Belgian’s future became uncertain and even under Mourinho, Januzaj’s future is surely under so many questions. The Belgian is an attacking winger, but right at this very moment, the side has some top class players to compete for the spot, hence, Januzaj will only be preferred after them.
Besides all of it, the youngster has his cons in himself; he is often criticized for being a selfish player on the pitch and even his attitude towards the opponent is not very considerable as well.
There is no doubt that Sunderland is not the club Januzaj wants his future with, but the youngster can really revive under the Scot and besides that, he will get a proper and regular game time as well. Manchester United already have the players like Lingard, martial, Mkhitaryan and Depay to challenge for the spot and right at this very moment, the Belgian do not stand a chance to fight against them. What Manchester United need is a proven winner, who has a great experience of playing a top brand of football, and Januzaj cannot really offer them that, hence, we really think that the club should allow him to leave.
