Jose Mourinho provides Marouane Fellaini update

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has revealed that Marouane Fellaini will return from injury "in a couple of weeks", but the Portuguese is still unsure whether the midfielder will sign a new contract with the Red Devils.

Fellaini has not represented United since the end of January, when he aggravated a knee problem as a late substitute against Tottenham Hotspur.

The Belgium international will see his current deal with the 20-time English champions expire this summer, meanwhile, and he continues to be linked with a move away from Old Trafford.

Mourinho has tipped Fellaini to return to the field later this month, although the 30-year-old's future is still unclear.

"He's still a young player, his injury had a little surgery, but a minor surgery, and he will be back to play again in a couple of weeks," Mourinho told reporters.

"If we proceed in the Champions League beyond Sevilla, I think he will be ready for a hypothetical quarter-final. He will be ready for a hypothetical FA Cup semi-final. He will be ready for the last couple of months of our Premier League fight.

"Is he going to stay or leave? I don't know. I don't know. I want him to stay, the club wants him to stay. The process, the negotiations, the numbers, the distances between the offer and what he wants - I really don't know how things are going."

Fellaini has only made 16 appearances for United during the 2017-18 campaign.
