Marouane Fellaini facing Manchester United exit as he is yet to sign contract extension
Old Trafford chiefs offered Belgian midfielder a one-year deal but terms fell short of his demands
MAROUANE FELLAINI is yet to agree a contract extension with Manchester United, according to reports.
Old Trafford chiefs have tabled a one-year deal for the Belgian midfielder, who Jose Mourinho is desperate to keep hold of.
The towering playmaker, 29, is entering the final year of his contract and would like a longer deal.
But United's policy with players over 30 is to stick to rolling contracts.
Mourinho handed Fellaini his first league start in the 4-0 demolition of former club Everton at the weekend after Paul Pogba was ruled out with injury.
The Special One blocked a move to Galatasaray this summer after the Turkish giants agreed terms with the Belgian international following Nemanja Matic's arrival.
Fellaini - who joined United from Everton in a £27.5million deal in 2013 - is free to speak to foreign clubs from January.
Several clubs in Turkey and Italy are believed to be interested in a free transfer, with Gala set to launch another bid.
But with Pogba set to be sidelined for another two weeks at least due to his hamstring injury, Fellaini could stake a claim for an improved offer from United.
The Red Devils take on Burton tomorrow before a trip to Southampton on Saturday and CSKA Moscow on September 27.
