Marouane Fellaini may have returned to the starting XI, tonight, but his future at Manchester United appears to be coming to an end, especially what people around him have said.

The club have tabled two new offers to the Belgium international, though he's rejected those contracts proposed by the board.

He's reportedly looking for a £120,000-a-week wage packet with his current United deal set to expire at the end of the season.

Fellaini, 30, has even said he feels underappreciated at United.

That's according to reports from Daily Mail, who claim the player believes he has never been accepted by the United hierarchy and fans.

"Friends of the 30-year-old say he believes he has one final payday in his career and feels that he has never been accepted by the United board or the club's supporters."

What's more, Fellaini has apparently been advised to 'follow the money'.

A few months back, Jose Mourinho commented on Fellaini's contract situation. And he didn't mince his words: "I told him sign the contract and shut up," he said via Sky Sports.

"I told him don't gamble too much before you know the extent of the injury. I don't know [if he will sign an extension]."

Where's next for Fellaini?

He's keen on remaining in England's top flight. However, he's also attracting interest from the Chinese Super League and Major League Soccer, not to mention clubs from Turkey's Super Lig.

Where will the towering midfielder be plying his trade next season?
