Manchester United youngster Adnan Januzaj will be included in Belgium's extended squad for the World Cup.

Manager Marc Wilmots has confirmed that Januzaj will be part of a 26 or 27-man squad for upcoming friendlies, despite the fact that the 19-year-old only declared his allegiance to the country of his birth last week.

Januzaj, who has never been capped at international level, will have a chance to prove his worth in pre-World Cup friendlies against Luxembourg and Sweden.

However, Wilmots said that he would not give assurances that Januzaj will be included in the final 23-man squad for Brazil.
