'They made me an offer, and probably another one will follow. Whether I will accept it, I don’t know. You can’t arrange something like that in an instant.


'We [Fellaini and Mourinho] talked about it. The coach is someone who respects the decisions of his players.'

Fellaini has been out in recent weeks after aggravating a knee ligament injury against Chelsea and Brighton. United insist they will not sell him in January but he could yet leave as a free agent in the summer.
