The 22-year-old sealed a switch to Real Sociedad in January.
After falling out of favour at the Red Devils, the Belgium international spent loan spells at Borussia Dortmund and Sunderland before he completed his transfer to Spain.
And The Sun say Januzaj spent £3m on a house in Altrincham, however he was sold just a few days later without even having the chance to move in.
A source told The Sun: “Adnan fell in love with the property as soon as he saw it.

“He was delighted when his offer was accepted.
“The sale dragged on a bit but he was hopeful he had a future at Old Trafford. Manager Jose Mourinho had other ideas.
“He’s a wealthy boy and it’s always good to put money into bricks and mortar, but I’m not sure many people would choose to complete a house purchase a week before they move abroad to work for five years.”

The report says he paid £2.7m plus a further £237,750 in stamp duty.
Januzaj, who broke into the United first team in 2013, scored five goals in 63 appearances for the club.
