Man United advancing in move for Amrabat
Manchester United are pushing forward with their move for Fiorentina star Sofyan Amrabat this summer as they press ahead with selling off their fringe players. According to transfer insider Alfredo Pedulla, United must first offload players to raise the funds needed to sign Amrabat. It’s claimed that United are a ‘couple of sales’ away from raising the necessary funds to lodge a bid for the midfielder. It’s suggested that United will need up to £50million to cover the overall cost of signing Amrabat. An agreement is already said to be in place on personal terms, but now it’s a case of United selling their fringe players to ‘advance’ their move for the Moroccan.
