<p>Anthony Martial has signed a new and improved deal with Manchester United until at least 2024 as Marouane Fellaini closes in on a move to China.</p>
<p>Jose Mourinho was ready to sell the Frenchman over the summer, when Fellaini, one of his most trusted lieutenants, was rewarded with a new deal until 2020 with the option of a further season.</p>
<p>But the players have witnessed a marked change of circumstance recently.</p>
<p>Fellaini is now edging closer to moving to China after United reached an agreement with Shandong Luneng, while Martial has signed a contract extension until 2024 with the option of a further year.</p>

<p><em>“I am loving my time at this club,”</em> Martial said, having posed for photos with caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.</p>
<p><em>“From the day I joined I have been made to feel part of the United family and I have been incredibly humbled and overwhelmed by the warmth and love of our fans, who continue to amaze me with their support.</em></p>
<p><em>“I would like to thank Ole and his coaching staff for their belief in me and for helping me to take my game to the next level.</em></p>
<p><em>“This club is all about winning trophies and I am sure the next piece of silverware is not that far away.”</em></p>

<p>Martial signed from Monaco for an initial £36million in 2015 and became the most expensive teenager in the world – but until recently it appeared a matter of when rather than if he would leave Old Trafford.</p>
<p>The forward’s agent Philippe Lamboley said in June that his client wanted to leave United and Press Association Sport understands that Mourinho was willing to sell him in the summer – a time when the Portuguese fined him for the way he left their American pre-season tour for the birth of his second child.</p>
<p>But Martial has kicked on this term and questions over his happiness have disappeared since the departure of Mourinho – a manager whose approach could scarcely be more different to Solskjaer’s.</p>
<p><em>“Anthony is one of those naturally gifted players that any coach would love to work with,”</em> the caretaker boss said.</p>
<p><em>“For a young man, he has a good footballing brain which, when coupled with his exceptional talent, makes for a player with an exciting future ahead of him.</em></p>
<p><em>“This is the perfect club for Anthony to progress his development as a top-class forward and we are all delighted he has signed a long-term deal.”</em></p>
<p>While Martial commits to the club, Fellaini is set to end his five-and-a-half year stay at Old Trafford as Press Association Sport understands that United have reached an agreement in principle regarding his sale to Shandong.</p>

<p>It is understood that the Belgium international has already passed a medical, leaving paperwork and final terms to iron out.</p>
<p>Fellaini posted an Instagram photo of himself at an airport on Thursday morning, with the phrase “let’s go” written across it.</p>
<p>Chinese Super League clubs have until February 28 to complete signings and it is understood that another club out there has been monitoring the midfielder’s situation.</p>
<p>Fellaini has only managed 31 minutes since Solskjaer took caretaker charge last month, although a calf injury has ruled him out of recent matches.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Manchester United have sent Matty Willock on loan to Crawley for the rest of the season.</p>
<p>After temporary spells with Utrecht, St Johnstone and most recently St Mirren, the 22-year-old has joined the Sky Bet League Two side until the end of 2018-19.</p>
<p>Crawley’s director of football Selim Gaygusuz said: <em>“We are really excited to have such a young and versatile player like Matty joining us for the rest of the season.</em></p>
<p><em>“Having come from Manchester United, we know that he has been trained by some world class coaches in multi-million pound facilities, so I’m sure he is well prepared to make an impact for us.”</em></p>
