Galatasaray’s sporting director, Cenk Ergun, has revealed they are “close” to a deal to acquire Marouane Fellaini from Manchester United.
The 29-year-old is entering the final year of his contract at Old Trafford and manager Jose Mourinho has decided to let him leave, as he eyes another midfield signing this summer.
“Fellaini will leave Manchester United and he is now in our radar,” Ergun was quoted as saying by Ajansspor.
“There will be surprises, 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.”
Fellaini joined United from Everton for £27.5 million in 2013.
