Liverpool decide against move for Man United midfielder

Liverpool have reportedly decided against making an approach for Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini, whose contract is due to expire at the end of the season.

A report on Monday suggested that Fellaini could make a surprise return to Merseyside with Jurgen Klopp prepared to offer him a three-year contract.

However, this story has been quickly dismissed by The Mail, and Fellaini is now said to be of interest to Paris Saint-Germain, who are looking at midfield reinforcements.

The 30-year-old has just two months left on his existing deal at Old Trafford, and a renewal appears highly unlikely considering his intention to earn a long-term deal.

Apart from Les Parisiens, Fellaini has also been linked with clubs in Italy and Turkey, though the Champions League could be crucial to their ambition of pursuing the former Evertonian.

Fellaini has struggled with a series of knee injuries during the current campaign, and this has restricted to more of a bench role despite starting the season in a bright fashion.
