Man Utd boss Giggs keen to see Januzaj at World Cup

Manchester United boss Ryan Giggs is backing Adnan Januzaj for the World Cup.

The midfielder only pledged his allegiance to Belgium - the country of his birth - last month.

"Adnan is the kind of player who could light up a World Cup, whether that is starting games or off the bench," said the United interim player-manager, who started Januzaj in the 3-1 win over Hull on Tuesday.

"I was excited when he got the ball the other night - when I was on the pitch and on the bench.

"He floats with the ball effortlessly. He is just one of those players you love watching."
