Fellaini not planning move away

Everton midfielder Marouane Fellaini insists he is happy at the club and is not thinking about a move away from Goodison Park.

Chelsea have been linked with a move for the Belgium international, who cost the Toffees an initial £12million from Standard Liege in September 2008.

While Fellaini cannot guarantee where he will end up when his Everton contract expires, he is more than happy at Goodison Park and is focused on helping his team-mates finish the season strongly.

The 22-year-old has three years left on his existing deal and is not sidetracking himself by thinking of a move to one of the 'big four'.

Fellaini admits the early parts of the season were disappointing, although he is determined for Everton to finish the campaign strongly, including going as far as they can in the Europa League.

"I'm really happy at Everton. I have three years left on my contract and everything is going really well," he told Sky Sports News.

"I'm just focused on doing my best for the club. Doing my job here and doing what I'm being paid to do. Whatever happens in the future? Well, all I'm concentrating on is the present and Everton.

"We made things really difficult for ourselves at the start of the season and now we're out of both cup competitions, but we're still in Europe.

"So the aim now is to get as far as we can and win as many games as we can between now and the end of the year."
