Manchester United Transfer News: Latest Adnan Januzaj and James Wilson Rumours

Rory MarsdenSep 10, 2015

Borussia Dortmund do not reportedly have an option to buy on current Manchester United loanee Adnan Januzaj, but they do have first refusal should the Red Devils decide to sell the young Belgian.

Januzaj was surprisingly sent out on loan to Dortmund by United boss Louis van Gaal at the end of the recent transfer window despite the 20-year-old having played a key role in the side early in the season.

There was concern from many Red Devils fans that Dortmund had included an option to buy in the deal, although it was widely reported that was not the case, per Press Association's Paul Hirst:

It has now been revealed that Dortmund, however, have first refusal on Januzaj, and thus the Bundesliga outfit will be the first club to be notified should United decide to sell the talented winger before the current season is over, per German outlet SportBild (h/t Sport Witness).

It seems unlikely that such a scenario will emerge as Januzaj is considered by many as one of the most exciting young talents on the United books.

Januzaj is set to be deputised in his absence by another young United talent, Brazilian Andreas Pereira, per Samuel Luckhurst in the Manchester Evening News.

However, no matter how spectacular the performances from Pereira, United's fans would likely be unhappy with any attempt to sell Januzaj given the shocked reaction to previous rumours of his potential departure, per talkSPORT:

It will be interesting to see what the Old Trafford faithful think of the next upcoming loan move planned by Van Gaal with 19-year-old striker James Wilson reportedly set for a spell away from the club.

According to the Mirror, the Dutch manager has agreed to send Wilson out on loan to a Championship club to help him gain some first-team experience, with Derby County the favourites to sign him up.

Indeed, Sky Sports report that the deal is set to go through in the next 24 hours.

Wilson has appeared only sparingly for the Red Devils since he netted twice on his senior debut against Hull City in May of 2014.

However, with Wayne Rooney the only proven strike option currently on the books at Old Trafford after the summer departures of Robin van Persie, Radamel Falcao and Javier Hernandez, Wilson was expected by many to provide back-up for the skipper in 2015-16.

Even with the recent arrival of Anthony Martial at the club, loaning out Wilson will still leave United short in the strike department, but he does indeed seem set for a temporary departure.
