Manchester United star Marouane Fellaini has hinted to a possible move to the Chinese Super League.

Fellaini is on record claiming that a move to China is not a priority at present and acknowledges that such a transfer would likely spell the end of his 74-cap Belgium career.

However, he is definitely not ruling out the possibility of one day following the likes of Witsel, Carlos Tevez, Ezequiel Lavezzi, Jackson Martinez, Graziano Pelle and Odion Ighalo to the Chinese Super League.

"Why not in the future? I can not say it now, I'm a Manchester United player. But why not?" he said during an interview.

Fellaini was brought to Manchester United by former Everton boss David Moyes for a £27.5m fee in 2013, signing a four-year contract that included an option of a further 12 months.

The club confirmed in January that they had triggered the clause to pick up that extra year, meaning he is currently under contract until 2018.
