Former Manchester United wonder kid Adnan Januzaj could reportedly return to the Premier League with Everton after impressing in La Liga.
Adnan Januzaj’s decision to leave Manchester United for Real Sociedad last year looks an excellent one in hindsight.
The promising winger had tumbled down the pecking order at Old Trafford and, just over a year ago, finished bottom of the Premier League during a disappointing loan spell at Sunderland.
But ever since moving to Spain, the now 23-year-old has reminded everyone why he was once handed Ryan Giggs’ famous number 11 shirt at Old Trafford. Januzaj scored or assisted eight goals in La Liga last season to revive his reputation and also scored that stunning winner for Belgium against England in the World Cup group-stages.
And it seems that his impressive form in 2018 could trigger a return to English football.
Het Nieuwsblad reports that Everton have made contact with Januzaj in an attempt to lure him to Goodison Park this summer.
It is understood that Januzaj is happy in San Sebastian but could be intrigued by a new challenge in England, not to mention the prospect of a return to the North West.
Januzaj played on the right for Sociedad last season, cutting inside onto his crafty right foot, but he can also play on the opposite flank, using his burst of pace and clever footwork to deceive opposition full-backs.
And with Yannick Bolasie expected to join Fenerbahce on loan, his arrival would give Marco Silva some much needed depth out wide.
