Fellaini leaves Manchester United for Chinese Super League

Manchester United midfielder, Marouane Fellaini has penned a deal with Shandong Luneng in the Chinese Super League.

The 31-year-old Belgian international has undergone and passed a medical. He joined Manchester from Everton for a transfer fee of  27 million GBP in 2014 and signed a new two -year deal in 2018 that was supposed to run out in 2020.
