David Moyes is reportedly eyeing another reunion with midfielder Marouane Fellaini

Despite the manager only lasting 10 months at Old Trafford, Fellaini went on to have six seasons as a Red Devil.

Now at Shandong Taishan the former Premier League midfielder is wanted by new West Ham boss Moyes.

According to Sky Sports the Hammers manager wants the Belgium international to help bolster his midfield.

It comes after they agreed a deal in principle to sign Gedson Fernandes from Benfica on an 18-month loan without an option to buy.

Fellaini has been playing in the Chinese Super-League since February last year, scoring eight goals in 22 matches.

But the Far East league has now introduced a salary cap which means the midfielder would be forced to take a 75 per cent pay cut if he stayed beyond his current deal.

It could encourage the 32-year-old to consider a future back in Europe.

Fellaini scored 27 goals in his 260 Prem appearances for both Everton and United.

The 6ft 4in star earns over 360,000 a-week in China, but that will be cut to no more than 50,000 once his contract expires.

He currently has two years left on his Shandong Taishan deal.
