Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher has sung the praises of team-mate Adnan Januzaj by claiming that he is one of the best youngsters he has ever seen at the club.
The 18-year-old has burst onto the scene at Old Trafford this season under David Moyes and in the absence of injured duo Wayne Rooney and Robin Van Persie, the Belgium teenager has been one of the crucial figues for the United side.
Despite not getting on the scoresheet himself, Januzaj was the maestro behind their 2-0 victory over Swansea City yesterday, and after the game, Fletcher admitted that he barely remembers seeing anyone better at his age.
‘For his age, he is up there with some of the best I have seen, without a shadow of a doubt,’ said Fletcher.
‘He is a great kid. There is no ego. He wants to learn and listens to advice he is being given. He just wants to go out on the pitch and express himself.
‘Hopefully we have given him a platform to do that.
‘The fans have taken to him straight away and he is making an impact. Hopefully he is here for a long time.’
