Manchester United Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Addresses Marouane Fellaini Imminent Transfer To Shandong Luneng

Solskjaer said at the start of the week that he did not expect any United exits before Thursday’s English transfer deadline and was coy about the Belgium international’s future following Tuesday’s 2-2 draw with Burnley.

Asked if there was anything he could say on Fellaini, the caretaker manager said: “To be honest, no.

“I’ve been busy all day and I don’t really know the latest update on that one. Just wait and see.”

Fellaini’s exit looms just a matter of weeks after Solskjaer bemoaned the absence of the injured midfielder and his “X factor”.

“He’ll probably be at least three or four weeks (out),” the United boss on January 18.

“He’s got a calf problem and that’s sad because there’s X-factors in different players and we all know Felli’s X factor.

“Then again, he’ll be working hard to get back in when all the big games are coming as well.”
