In 2013, David Moyes became his coach on Manchester United.

Januzaj was born in Brussels, Belgium, where his Kosovar Albanian family had emigrated in 1992 so his father, Abedin, would avoid being conscripted by the Yugoslav People’s Army for the war in Bosnia. Januzaj’s father was the eldest of six children from Istok, Kosovo. Januzaj’s uncles, Januz and Shemsedin, and aunt Lavi, were members of the Kosovo Liberation Army, during the Kosovo War. Since Kosovo declared independence in 2008, Januzaj has regularly visited his extended family there during the summer.

Adnan Januzaj (Albanian pronunciation: [adˈnan januˈzaj] ; born 5 February 1995) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Spanish club Real Sociedad and the Belgium national team. Born and raised in Brussels, he began his career with Anderlecht before joining Manchester United in 2011 at the age of 16. Januzaj broke into the Manchester United first-team under manager David Moyes during the 2013–14 season, but struggled for opportunities under Moyes’ successors Louis van Gaal and José Mourinho, and had loan spells at Borussia Dortmund and Sunderland before joining Real Sociedad in July 2017. Januzaj made his full international debut in 2014 and later that year played for Belgium at the FIFA World Cup in 2014 and 2018, reaching the semi-finals of the latter tournament.

Adnan Januzaj is one of the richest Soccer Player from Belgium. According to our analysis, Wikipedia, Forbes & Business Insider, Adnan Januzaj 's net worth $5 Million. (Last Update: December 11, 2023)

He was born in Brussels, Belgium and began his youth career with FC Brussels in 2001.

Due to his various family heritage and their history of immigration, he became eligible to play internationally for Belgium, Albania, Turkey, Serbia, and Kosovo.

Januzaj was left out of Manchester United’s initial squad for the UEFA Champions League when it was registered in September 2013, which came as a surprise to some members of the media after his impressive start to the season. Manager David Moyes later explained this was a tactical decision to allow the club to register an additional player for the competition; as Januzaj had not been with the club long enough to be eligible for the ‘List B’ squad, which for 2013–14 included any player born after 1 January 1992 who had been eligible to play for the club for at least two years, he would have had to be registered as one of only 25 ‘List A’ players, taking up a space that could have been used by another player. By waiting until 7 October 2013 to register Januzaj, he became eligible as a List B player, but this meant that he could not be selected for the club’s first two matches in the competition, at home to Bayer Leverkusen and away to Shakhtar Donetsk. Despite being available from the third game of the tournament, at home to Real Sociedad, Januzaj was left out of both games against the Spanish club and the return match against Bayer Leverkusen. He made his Champions League debut at home to Shakhtar Donetsk on 10 December 2013.
