West Ham are likely to be busy in the January transfer window following the arrival of David Moyes and the Manchester United ace could be on his shortlist.
Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellani has been priced at 7/2 to form a reunion with former Everton manager David Moyes at West Ham United, according to Ladbrokes.
The bookmakers believe Moyes could sign 30-year-old midfielder Fellaini for a third time, after first luring him to Goodison Park from Belgian side Standard Liege before re-signing him at Old Trafford during his short reign in charge of United.
Fellaini remains an important part of Jose Mourinho’s side, scoring four goals in 12 league and cup outings this season, but he could look to move on to gain regular playing time as he has started just eight of those matches.
Known for his aerial prowess and strength, the versatile midfielder would fit in at the London Stadium with the Hammers boasting a number of players that are known for their ability in the air.
The likes of Andy Carroll, Cheikhou Kouyate, Michail Antonio and Angelo Ogbonna are all dominant forces when the ball is off the ground, and the Hammers’ tactics are suited around just that.
Fellaini’s future at Old Trafford is rather uncertain, given that he is one of a number of United stars entering the final months of their contract along with the likes of Juan Mata, Ander Herrera and Daley Blind.
A Moyes reunion could be on the cards then for the 6ft 4in powerhouse, as he struggles to hold down an established place in the side with Mourinho preferring Herrera, Paul Pogba, Michael Carrick and Nemanja Matic.
