Fenerbahçe have released a statement denying being in talks with Manchester United midfielder Adnan Januzaj.

The statement read: “Reports today in the Fotomaç, Ukra and Takvim newspapers linking Fenerbahçe with Januzaj and Feghouli are false. We are not planning to sign either player.”

Fanatik claimed that the Yellow Canaries have been targeting a move for the young winger.

Januzaj is however, also reported to be nearing a Sunderland loan move according to the Sunderland Echo.

The 20-year-old of Kosovan origin struggled for playing time under United boss Louis van Gaal last season making just 18 Premier League appearances.

The Istanbul giants have already signed eight players this season including former United stars Van Persie and Luis Nani. Also Lille defender Simon Kjaer, 2014-15 Süper Lig top scorer Fernandao, Turkish international Şener Özbayraklı and Brazil international Josef De Souza have also joined.

Additionally nine players including long-term servants to the club Emre Belözoğlu and Selçuk Şahin parted ways with the Istanbul giants.

Fenerbahçe kick-off the league campaign against Eskişehirspor on the weekend.
