The details of the new five-year contract for Adnan Januzaj and Manchester United have been made public. It has been revealed that the 18-year-old Belgian has become the highest-paid young player in the history of the "Red Devils."
It is reported that A. Januzaj will earn £60,000 per week. This is 244,000 litas per week or almost 1 million litas per month.
This salary is higher than what Manchester United used to pay football stars Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney in the past.
The record contract was influenced by A. Januzaj's excellent debut in the Premier League with Sunderland. The Belgian scored two goals and saved Manchester United from a 2-1 failure.
He also appeared on the field in Saturday's match against Southampton. The young player did not score a goal, but received a yellow card.
However, the British media writes that in the recent Manchester United matches, Januzaj was one of the best performers.
Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea, and Manchester City have shown active interest in A. Januzaj.
