It looks like Marouane Fellaini has been one busy -- and naughty -- boy by the sound of things. The Manchester United midfielder has been caught sliding straight into someone's DM.
According to the Sun, former Love Island star Tina Stinnes has caught the eye of the big Belgian and he decided to drop her a line over Instagram.
What did Fellaini say exactly?
He said: "Hey. How are you?"
It's pretty much the typical Tinder line that isn't an original opener -- or, for that matter, going to receive a reply -- but at least he wasn't crude and was respectful towards her.
However, the Belgian should really have done his homework and checked her relationship status before he made his move on the 23-year-old.
Her boyfriend was not a happy bunny.

Busted!
Matthew Mawhinney uploaded a screenshot of the message to Stinnes to his profile. Not one to be shy for words, her boyfriend put a rather straightforward message across the picture: "Fellaini, get out of my girlfriend's DMs."
Well, that escalated quickly, didn't it?
Fellaini had a successful World Cup run with Belgium in the summer, securing a third-place finish after a win against England.
Despite speculation surrounding his United future at the end of the last season, the midfielder committed to a new contract with the Red Devils back in June.
He started for United in their 2-1 win over Watford, with José Mourinho praising him for his performance.
The Red Devils play BSC Young Boys tomorrow in the opening match of their Champions League campaign.

There's no doubt that Fellaini will want to keep a low-key profile and wait for this awkward little incident to blow over.
Feel bad for Fellaini?
