Man United transfer news: Turkish giants enter talks with Fellaini’s representatives but Mourinho could block move again
Galatasaray have had Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini on their radar since the summer.
United boss Jose Mourinho blocked the Belgium international’s transfer to the Lions over the summer.
“It’s easier for Galatasaray to get me than to get Maroaune,” Mourinho was quoted as saying by Goal.
“Forget it. He’s too important to me.”
Fanatik report that Galatasaray are back in the race for Fellaini and have held talks with his representatives.

Per the source, the Istanbul giants want Fellaini in January and will make United an enquiry regarding his availability.
Mourinho is understood to be keen on the 29-year-old staying until at least the end of the season and could block his move to Galatasaray once again.
The Sun claim that Mourinho has held crisis talks with Fellaini in a last-ditch attempt to get him to sign a new contract deal.
Fellaini has under 12 months on his contract but has yet to sign an extension.
The Lions meanwhile could face competition from Besiktas who are also interested.
Turkish-Football recently reported that Besiktas have held talks with Fellaini’s representatives over a four year deal.
The Black Eagles are set to hold further talks in the lead up to the winter transfer window.
Besiktas want Fellaini on a free transfer at the end of the season and are not keen on paying a transfer fee in January.
