Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Galatasaray.

Earlier this week, it was claimed that United face an uphill battle to convince Fellaini to sign a new deal at Old Trafford, with the 32-year-old's current contract expiring at the end of the season.

Arsenal are one of the teams who have been linked with an approach for the Belgian international but according to The Sun, Galatasaray are ready to compete for his signature.

In January, Fellaini will be able to speak to foreign clubs regarding a transfer at the end of the campaign, and it is becoming increasingly likely that the former Everton man will assess his options before making a decision.

Fellaini has scored four times in eight appearances this season, but just three of those outings have come from a starting lineup in the Premier League.

Galatasaray's rivals Besiktas and La Liga outfit Valencia are also said to hold an interest.
