Manchester United have been handed a huge boost in their pursuit of Sofyan Amrabat with Fiorentina admitting they will ‘consider bids’ for him
United have been linked with a move for the Moroccan midfielder before the transfer season closes, along with Premier League rivals Liverpool. Both Erik ten Hag and the Reds would like to strengthen their midfield depth before the summer ends.
It looks that Amrabat’s future does not lie with Fiorentina. For the Italian team’s Europa Conference League match against Rapid Vienna, he was not included on the roster.Amidst mounting speculation about his future, the 27-year-old is also training separately from the Italian club’s first squad. Fiorentina chief executive Giuseppe Barone has provided an update, saying that the club has not received any offers for the midfielder but is not ruling out selling him in the near future.
Sky News quoted Barone as saying, “We have still not received any bid for Amrabat this summer; however, Sofyan is not working with the squad.” “Of course, we can begin entertaining offers for any players who are dissatisfied here.
The latest comments from Barone are part of an ongoing succession of developments. Last week, he said that if a player did not want to stay with the club, he would be willing to trade him.After telling Labaro Viola, “We are always ready for other entries and exits,” the man left. “We can make everyone happy by the end of the transfer window,” the manager said.
Should Man United make an attempt to sign Amrabat before the end of the transfer window, he could potentially become the Red Devils’ fourth big-money signing of the summer. Andre Onana, Mason Mount, and Rasmus Hojlund have all made it to the hangout.
United would like to sign Amrabat, but they need to clear some salary cap space first. Fred, a Brazilian midfielder, has already moved to Fenerbahce in the Turkish Super Lig.Scott McTominay, a former teammate, might decide to leave the organization at the same time. West Ham had been rumored to be interested in signing the Man United academy graduate and had an offer for his services rejected earlier this summer.
The Red Devils are speculated to have a number of viable midfield options in addition to Amrabat. Amadou Onana of Everton and Ryan Gravenberch of Bayern Munich have both been mentioned as possible transfers to Old Trafford.
