Fellaini is not wanted by new United manager Louis van Gaal. Now it is understood that United and Napoli have begin tentative negotiations over the transfer of a player who never settled to life under David Moyes at Old Trafford last season.
Fellaini, for his part, has accepted that Van Gaal doesn't want him and is open to the move.
United reportedly want a cash sale for a player who cost £27.5m while Napoli wish to explore the possibility of a loan. That would probably only be acceptable to United if Napoli could fund all of Fellaini's £100,000-a-week wage packet.
Van Gaal - whose team face Inter Milan in Washington on Tuesday night - told United chief executive Ed Woodward early in the summer that he didn't see Fellaini as a United player and wanted him to sell him.
It is understood that the future looks similarly bleak for Japan midfielder Shinji Kagawa and other bit-part players Anderson, Wilfried Zaha and Nani.
