Darren Fletcher hails Manchester United teammate Adnan Januzaj

Darren Fletcher believes that fellow Manchester United midfielder Adnan Januzaj is 'up there with the best' youngsters he has ever seen.

The United starlet, 18, has been a shining light in what has been a disappointing campaign for the reigning champions.

"For his age, he is up there with some of the best I have seen, without a shadow of a doubt," The Metro quotes Fletcher as saying.

"He is a great kid. There is no ego. He wants to learn and listens to advice he is being given. He just wants to go out and express himself.

"Hopefully, we have given him a platform to do that. The fans have taken to him straight away and he is making an impact. Hopefully, he is here for a long time."

The Red Devils face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League next Sunday.
