Loan with buy option mooted for Amrabat

In a not entirely convincing Man United side during 2023/24, Sofyan Amrabat can hardly be said to have covered himself in glory.

The midfielder had his moments, but frankly they were few and far between and the Moroccan international will surely be disappointed with his contribution overall at Old Trafford.

It would also seem to have not been enough to convince Erik ten Hag and the club’s board to re-invest in his services from 2024/25 onwards.

Man United won’t sign Sofyan Amrabat this summer

The Red Devils will, apparently, go in a different direction, which means the Fiorentina ace doesn’t have long to secure a new, permanent, base.

Former United manager, Jose Mourinho, now in charge at Turkish Super Lig giants, Fenerbahce, has seen his club offer La Viola a €2m loan fee and a €12m mandatory buy clause.

As CaughtOffside columnist and transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, noted via X, Fiorentina have turned down the offer because they want more money.

If they weren’t to get it, then they’ll likely be left with an unhappy player in their ranks, as it appears abundantly clear that the midfielder sees his future away from the club.

Any dreams that Amrabat may have harboured of staying at Old Trafford finally evaporated once it was announced that the club had agreed to sign Paris Saint-Germain’s Manuel Ugarte.

It brings to a close a short and unspectacular Man United career, and one which is likely to be quickly forgotten in the annals of Red Devils history.
