Marouane Fellaini Discusses Manchester United Exit, China Transfer, Future

Marouane Fellaini has denied he left Manchester United for China for financial reasons and believes he departed Old Trafford as a "respected player" despite a difficult start.

The former Everton man spoke to Belgian outlet Het Nieuwsblad (h/t Goal's Chris Burton), and when he was asked about leaving England for the money, he said that wasn't the case:

"Not me. I see this as a challenge at a club that has it all. Literally. You should see our medical and technical facilities. I love being here.

"With the Asian Champions League, I'll have to play two games a week here as well. I won't be able to get more rest than in England every week. But okay, it's true that the intensity is different here."
