5 possible reasons why Adnan Januzaj is trending

4. He’s a Muslim (!)

What has religion got to do anything with football? I don’t know, ask the number of people who searched for “Adnan Januzaj muslim?”, which was trending on Google. At the time of writing, it was still being searched for, along with “Adnan Januzaj religion?”.

For a sport that is a globally transcending as football, it should matter little what the religion of a player is. All that matters is whether he’s got the skills and whether he can play well for his team or not. But sadly, that does not seem to be enough for a large number of fans on the internet.

Unfortunate, really.
