Manchester United face fight for Fellaini
The Red Devils are facing an uphill struggle to retain Marouane Fellaini, with interest mounting from sides across Europe.
Fellaini's Old Trafford career did not get off to the easiest of starts and he was much criticised until Jose Mourtinho took over and placed his trust in the Belgian.
After impressing last season, Fellaini has been locked in contract talks with the club who are determined to keep him through Mourinho's orders.
The midfielder turns 30 next week and United remain hopeful they can reach a deal with him before his contract expires at the end of the season.
Fellaini could sign a pre-contract agreement with any of a number of suitors in January, but Manchester United are willing to risk him leaving in the summer for nothing rather than sell him in the next transfer window, regardless of his contract situation.
