Fellaini: Issues denial
Everton star Marouane Fellaini has played
down reports linking him with a move away from Goodison Park,
reaffirming his commitment to the club.
Fellaini had been quoted by Belgian newspaper Het
Nieuwsblad as saying that his time at Everton may be coming to an end in
January or at the end of the current season. However, the Belgian international has moved to set the record straight and insists he has no plans to leave Everton.
"I was very surprised to read in some newspapers that I will leave Everton very soon and perhaps next January," wrote Fellaini, in a statement published on his Facebook page.
"Let me remind you that I am very happy in Liverpool and our start of the championship was good.
"Kevin Mirallas and some other good players joined us to make a better squad in order to realize a good championship in the line of the end of the last one.
"So with Everton, I am ready to play all the season and to reach our goals of this season. However, my only concern for the moment is of course our [Belgium] Tuesday's game against Croatia.
"Whether you're in Belgium or England, thank you from my heart for your support ..."
