‘Jose love him. I don’t understand’ – Man United fans left puzzled by reported £8m midfielder exit on social media
Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini could be headed for a January exit according to reports in England.
In fact the Mirror claim that the Belgium international will join Besiktas after an £8 million transfer fee was agreed.
Fellaini has under 12 months remaining on his contract and has yet to sign a new deal so reports of him leaving the club are not that far fetched.
Still, Jose Mourinho was a vocal supporter of Fellaini.

We took a look at how fans reacted to reports that the powerful midfielder could be on his way out.
United fans seemed a bit confused by the reports. Jose Mourinho appeared to be keen on Fellaini so why is he tipped to leave in January?
I don’t understand why Fellaini is suddenly leaving? José loves him. I don’t understand?

Not sure how I feel about Fellaini possibly being sold in January because I’ve grown to really like him and he is a valuable member of the United team IMO

Why would we sell Fellaini to Besiktas in January when he’s become an actually useful player this season? #Rantcast

Would Mourinho be ok with Fellaini leaving?
Jose will fume if Fellaini goes but tbh, ya can’t change club policy for fuckin Fellaini

Or is Mou playing a game?
Mourinho always says things like to increase the players’ market value. He then off loads the player at the first opportunity. Watch.

Expect a social media storm, the ‘Come To Besiktas’ campaign went viral over the summer. It could be back this winter.

The £8 million price tag raised a few eyebrows among Besiktas fans.
You got it wrong mate. Manchester United to pay £8m for Fellaini’s move to Besiktas ??
— BIANCONERO (@johnnykartal) November 13, 2017
Calm down. We dont pay 10 m any player. Probably he sign free End of the season.

Becuse Besiktas won’t pay £8m for him ?

Would the transfer of Fellaini mean the end of Atiba? or could they play together?
This Besiktas fans feel if anything, the United fan should be Atiba’s backup.
Atiba Hutchinson > ManU

Pepe > Manu
