adminLONDON. — Marouane Fellaini’s World Cup campaign has essentially become one big English Premier League audition after it emerged that new Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has instructed the club to sell him.
Fellaini — an unmitigated disaster during his first season at Old Trafford last term — scored when coming on as a late substitute in Belgium’s opening game here in Brazil. He has played every minute of the three victories that have followed. But it is understood that Van Gaal has told associates Fellaini is “not a United type of player” and has instructed chief executive Ed Woodward to sell him before the season starts.
Old Trafford sources have revealed this week that Van Gaal has been quite clear about who he wants and doesn’t want and has told Woodward already.
All that remains to be seen is whether United can sell Fellaini for anything near the £27million they paid when buying him from Everton last September. — Mailonline-Metro.
