Transfer Deadline Day
Sofyan Amrabat is reportedly eager to complete his long-awaited move to Manchester United, as the club remains in talks with Fiorentina to secure the midfielder's signature. United have been monitoring Amrabat throughout the summer and must finalize a deal before the transfer deadline passes.
The Financial Challenge
While Manchester United had initially hoped to fund the Amrabat transfer by selling Harry Maguire, they may face difficulties in generating the necessary funds. In light of this, the Red Devils recently proposed a loan deal to Fiorentina, only for it to be rejected. However, negotiations between the two clubs are ongoing, offering a glimmer of hope for a potential agreement.
Amrabat's Determination
Sofyan Amrabat, 27, remains steadfast in his desire to join Manchester United and has turned down offers from multiple Premier League clubs to achieve his dream transfer. Nottingham Forest reportedly had a £17 million bid accepted by Fiorentina, but the midfielder rejected the offer. Furthermore, Amrabat has also rejected advances from Fulham, West Ham, and Saudi Arabian side Al-Ahli.
Pushing for a Transfer
Amrabat demonstrated his commitment to securing a move by making himself unavailable for selection and training away from the rest of the Fiorentina squad. While personal terms have been agreed upon, the midfielder must undergo a medical before the transfer deadline expires in order to finalize the deal.
Deadline-Day Loan Signing
In addition to the pursuit of Sofyan Amrabat, Manchester United are also aiming to complete a loan signing of Sergio Reguillon from Tottenham on deadline day. The two clubs have reached an agreement, and the left-back is expected to undergo a medical to finalize the deal in time.
