Liverpool ‘draw up surprise three-year deal for Marouane Fellaini’
Belgian's style may not appear to be a shoe-in at Anfield but Jurgen Klopp may need midfielder to replace Emre Can

LIVERPOOL are reported to have drawn up a three-year contract for Marouane Fellaini.
The Manchester United midfielder's contract expires at the end of the season and he wants to stay in the Premier League.
According to French newspaper the former Everton star could end up at Anfield.
At first sight Fellaini might not appear to be a Jurgen Klopp type of player.
He doesn't move at full throttle, while the Reds do not place that much emphasis on high balls and crosses.
But Klopp will need a midfield enforcer if Emre Can, as expected, leaves in the summer and ball-winner Fellaini is viewed as a decent addition to the squad.
