According to reports in the Turkish media, Manchester United
midfielder, Marouane Fellaini has agreed a deal with Galatasaray.
The 29 year old has a year left in his contract at Old Trafford, and
the Turkisk giants sporting director has claimed the Belgian
international is a player they are interested in signing.
"Fellaini will leave Manchester United and he is now in our radar"
says Cenk Ergun, the sporting director of Galatasaray.
"There will be surprises (in the transfer window), we are in talks
with Fellaini.
"We have made an approach, we are close and if we get Fellaini we will
end our pursuit of (Villarreal's Alfred) N'Diaye.
"We need a player like Fellaini who can move around in midfield."
The much maligned Belgian was signed from Everton in the summer of
2013 for a reported fee of £27m. He has gone on to make over 133
appearances during his time at Old Trafford.
He played a key role as Manchester United won their first major trophy
of the post Alex Ferguson era when they won the FA cup in Louis van
Gaal's last match in charge.
He was also a key figure as the club won the League Cup and Europa
League in Jose Mourinho's first season as manager.
The reports linking him with a move away from England has gathered
pace in the last 24 hours. It remains to be seen whether there is some
substance to it. Time would ultimately tell.
