Everton midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marouane-Fellaini-c24295, has revealed that he will prefer to stay at Goodison Park if the Toffees go on to qualify for the Champions League this season.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Belgium-c2850 International has recently emerged in some rumours, associating him to making a move away from the Merseyside club in January.
Earlier, the 24-year old had himself admitted that he was contemplating parting ways with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019, as he had achieved his desired goals with the club.
According to some reports, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 are monitoring the situation of the lanky midfielder. Both the London teams are expected to make a bid for him either in the January transfer window or at the end of the term.
However, Fellaini has now claimed that he will prefer continuing with his career at Goodison Park, if the Toffees somehow manage to finish inside the top-four this campaign.
The player admitted that he had nurtured and developed as a proper footballer during his stay at Merseyside, and he now wants to ‘repay’ them by helping them gain entry into the European competitions.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Moyes’ unit currently sits at the fifth place in the table and lag behind fourth-ranked West Bromwich Albion by three points after twelve matches.
Last term, they finished ahead of bitter rivals, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 in the EPL’s pecking order, but narrowly missed out on a place in the Europa League.
“I want to play in the Champions League, and if Everton finish in the top four then I'm happy to stay here - I'd love to do that with Everton,” he told the reporters in an interview.
“I want to do that. I want to improve as a player, and I want to give everything for Everton. They brought me here from Standard Liege and gave me my chance to play in the Premier League, and I always want to repay them for that.”
Fellaini joined Everton’s ranks in September, 2008 for a whooping 15 million pounds transfer fee, making him the most expensive player in the history of the club. He has capped 149 appearances for the Toffees and got 26 goals under his belt.
