Manchester United Willing To Consider Offers For Marouane Fellaini
West Ham are among the clubs who are interested in taking the Belgium international, though the cost of his wages and any fee is prohibitive for the London Stadium club.
Fellaini travelled with United's first team squad to Ukraine for their Europa League tie at Zorya Luhansk and is part of Jose Mourinho's immediate plans.
However, United are looking to upgrade their squad further over the next 12 months and recognise Fellaini will be pushed down the pecking order.
His physical presence has aided United at times but Paul Pogba has started to flourish in the more advanced role that suits Fellaini best.
United will also look to add another quality holding player with Michael Carrick coming to the close of his career while Morgan Schneiderlin has failed to impress and is a January target for Everton and West Brom.
Fellaini joined United in 2013 from Everton for £27.5million and at 29 United will do well to recoup a large proportion of that fee with an asking price likely set around £20m.
The 6ft 5ins midfielder has made 100 appearances for United in his four seasons at Old Trafford and has underlined a desire to stay and fight for his place but ultimately knows he would play more regularly if he moved away.
Sunderland manager, David Moyes would also like to sign Fellaini but is restricted by the club's January budget.
