United have been linked with a £50million move for Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic this summer.

And Galatasaray's sporting director Cenk Ergun has revealed that they want Fellaini.

Speaking to Ajansspor, he said: "We have a surprise name for a position. We have had talks with Marouane Fellaini.

"We need a player like Fellaini who can shuttle around in midfield.

"We have made an approach, we are close."

Fellaini, 29, joined United from Everton in a £27.5m deal in 2013.

He has had an up-and-down spell with the Red Devils but became an important squad player under Mourinho last season, making 39 appearances in all competitions.
