Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini 'close to Roma move'

Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini has reportedly indicated that he is interested in a move to Roma.

United boss Jose Mourinho has previously spoken highly of Fellaini, but the Belgian international's contract at Old Trafford expires at the end of the season with no apparent desire to pen a new deal.

Fellaini is currently able to hold negotiations with foreign clubs regarding a free transfer in the summer and according to Corriere dello Sport, talks have already gotten underway with Roma.

As it stands, discussions over the switch have been positive and Roma appear to be the frontrunners for the 30-year-old as he contemplates the next move of his career.

Juventus, Inter Milan, Besiktas and Galatasaray are also said to hold an interest in Fellaini, who has made just four starts in all competitions this season.
