  • The 25 year old was constantly linked with a move to Old Trafford and reunite with David Moyes throughout the summer. However, the red devils kept it till the last moments of the window before wrapping the deal up.<br />

    Fellaini admitted that he is extremely excited on his move and believes that United have a good enough squad to defend their Premier League title.<br />

    The Belgium international told Sky Sports : "It was a great week for me. It was nervous on Monday, but I have my transfer and I won with Belgium, so I'm happy.<br />

    "When I started the campaign with Everton, I looked forward for a transfer and in the end I am happy.<br />

    "I look forward to playing with the players. I need to work hard for my place. I want to win something with Manchester. I want to play a lot of games and win a trophy.<br />

    "It will be tough, every year it is tough for the big teams. But I think Manchester United have quality to win the trophy. I look forward to this.<br />

    "It's a big step for me. But I have played for five years in England, I know the league and I know the players, so I don't think I will have a problem with this move."
