CONFIRMED: Fellaini signs new Man Utd contract

The 29-year-old Belgium international will remain with the Red Devils for another 12 months, having made nine Premier League starts this season
Manchester United have triggered a clause in Marouane Fellaini's contract to extend his stay at Old Trafford through to 2018.

Fellaini followed David Moyes to United from Everton in 2013, signing a four-year deal with an option for an additional season.
The club have exercised their right to extend the Belgian international's agreement, securing his future beyond the current campaign.
An official United statement read: "Manchester United have confirmed a clause has been triggered in Marouane Fellaini's contract to extend his stay with the club.
"When signing from Everton on the final day of the summer transfer window in 2013, the Belgian agreed a four-year deal with the option of a further year.
"That has now been taken up, tying him to Old Trafford until at least the summer of 2018."
Fellaini has previously struggled to nail down a regular place in the United starting XI but appears to be highly valued by Jose Mourinho.
The 29-year-old has made 21 appearances in all competitions, including nine starts in the Premier League.

He scored his first goal of the 2016-17 campaign in Tuesday's 2-0 victory over Hull City in the EFL Cup semi-final.

He may not play in his preferred position, but he does so from one of power Jurgen Klopp had barely mapped out his way to Melwood before he first commended James Milner’s cerebral comprehension of the game.  “A complete football player, the perfect professional, a machine” was the German’s assessment after a 1-1 draw at Tottenham last October; his first fixture as Liverpool’s manager. Right at the start of his tenure, it was apparent on the training pitches at the West Derby complex that there was very little Milner could not do, and even less that he did not understand. With Zeljko Buvac, Peter Krawietz and Pep Lijnders helping Klopp bank the smallest details from every session - supported by the performance analysis team - the decision to utilise Milner as a left-back for the season was logical rather than some elaborate experiment. “It was clear that if Millie was open for this position the
