After joining Manchester United from Everton for a fee of £27.5million in 2013, the Belgian has received his fair amount of flak from fans for his performances.
But he played a starring role in United’s 2-0 win over Ajax in the Europa League final on Wednesday in Stockholm.
Having previously been seen as a misfit, Fellaini has won over Mourinho and he made 47 appearances in all competitions this term.
And he insists there’s nothing he wouldn’t do for the Portuguese tactician.
