Adnan Januzaj has pointed out former manager, Louis Van Gaal as the man behind his disappointment at Old Trafford.

The Belgium International has uttered that the Dutchman did not contribute to his development during his playing days at Manchester United.

The Red Devils winger made his competitive debut in 2013. He jumped to prominence when he scored twice as United came from behind to claim a 2–1 victory away to Sunderland before been tied down to a new five-year contract yet he missed the mark at the time.

The Real Sociedad winger was loaned to Borussia Dortmund in 2015 and Sunderland in 2016 before he joined Sociedad having failed to hold onto his place in the Manchester United squad.

"Ah, Louis van Gaal. I really should not be defending myself against him, I think the statistics say it all," he said.

"Every time I made the difference with an assist or a goal, I was always out of the team for the next match. It was the same with Memphis (Depay).

"He does not speak the truth if he says that he gave us plenty of opportunities, it's as simple as that. Fortunately, there are plenty of people at Manchester United who do value my talent."

Adnan Januzaj in December 2013 was nominated for the BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year.
