Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini is being chased by three clubs, according to Het Nieuwsblad (h/t Mirror).

The Belgian only signed a two-year deal last season under Jose Mourinho but has not been used much by interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. The midfielder was not part of the squad that defeated Tottenham at Wembley on Sunday.

The report claims that Porto, AC Milan and Guangzhou Evergrande are targetting the 31-year-old.

Fellaini was a crucial part of Jose Mourinho’s tactics last season but has played just 31 minutes of first-team football under Solskjaer.

The report adds that United won’t let the player leave on the cheap since he still has a year left on his current deal.

The Red Devils have several options in the midfield with Solskjaer favouring a trio of Ander Herrera, Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic in most games.

United are in great form at the moment and put themselves firmly in the race for the top four with a 1-0 win over Tottenham.

The Red Devils lie six points behind Chelsea, who hold the final Champions League spot. We could close the gap this weekend as they play Arsenal.
