Everton boss David Moyes fears he could lose Marouane Fellaini in a £20m move this summer.

Cash trapped: Everton fear Fellaini MUST GO in summer if big clubs waggle money

Belgian midfield powerhouse Fellaini showed his quality against England at Wembley and was a big money target for clubs last season, including Arsenal.

Everton sold Mikel Arteta to Arsenal and kept Fellaini but a big deal may force them into selling this summer because they are strapped for cash.

Everton defender Phil Jagielka said: “Unfortunately, the way the club is, if somebody comes in with a £20million-plus offer the chances are he’s going to be sold.

“We love Felli and we’d love him to stay. There’s not been that much transfer talk but we know the situation we’re in.

“We bought him for £16m and I don’t think the club would take a loss. He’s developed in that time, especially in the last few games of the season, just behind the front one, he destroyed teams.”

Jagielka admits his Everton team mate is going from strength to strength and is helping Belgium become a major force.

He added: “He’s faster than I remember, he must’ve put a yard on. I can’t stop laughing when I see him and it’s not just his hair.

“He’s a fantastic player. Belgium have got a few players for the future and once they kick on they’ll be a team to watch.”
