Man Utd midfielder Marouane Fellaini has been linked with the exit and the Belgium international has been speaking about a possible new contract.
Marouane Fellaini admits he is in a 'strong position' over his contract negotiations as he claimed
Manchester United made a mistake by not extending his deal last year.
The Belgium international is out of contract at
Old Trafford in the summer and he has failed to sign the current deal on the table from the United chiefs.
Having scored the winner against Arsenal in the 2-1 Premier League win,
Mourinho told reporters he was confident the 30-year-old would agree a new contract before the start of next season, and
Fellaini has admitted he is a strong negotiating position as he knows the United boss wants him to stay.
"The entire staff is doing everything I can to stay. Now I am in a strong position, especially since Mourinho has stated that he wants to keep me," Fellaini told Sport Magazine.
"Last year I went to the coach and I said that I wanted a new contract. I then had a second meeting, but I will not ask it ten times. Afterwards I became important for the team... And a good player costs at least 50 million euros. The club knows that they went wrong there."
With a new contract yet to be agreed, Fellaini has been linked with clubs all across Europe, as well as China, and the midfielder revealed he would have no issue with moving to the Far East.
"I would not have a problem with life in China. I love to discover other places and other cultures. And I will not go there alone. If I go, it's with the family," Fellaini said.
"I am now thirty years old, end of contract and negotiating with Manchester United. There are several clubs that show interest. I'm waiting for what's going to happen."
