Deal Done: Report says Manchester United ready to sign ‘superstar’ who have same agent as Luke Shaw
Manchester United are said to be closing in on the arrival of Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat this summer, according to a new transfer update.
Who is Sofyan Amrabat?
The 26-year-old joined his current side from Club Brugge in 2020 and has been a key player during that time, making 107 appearances, mainly in the midfield formation.
Amrabat caught the attention of the wider football public during the 2022 World Cup and proved to be a hugely influential figure for a Moroccan team that reached the semi-finals against all odds. He started all seven games for his country and stood out as one of the best midfielders in the tournament, averaging 2.3 tackles per game. It could be that the Moroccan is now on track to leave Fiorentina in the summer, as his current contract expires next year. That means this appears to be the Serie A side’s last chance to receive good money for signing him, rather than seeing him go on a free transfer in the summer of 2024.
United have been linked with a move to Amrabat several times recently and a new update suggests the move is getting closer.
Will Man Utd sign Sofyan Amrabat?
According to Gazzetta dello Sport [via The Daily Mail], the Red Devils are getting closer to signing the midfielder, with a deal appearing to be close. Despite borrowing Marcel Sabitzer instead, the Austrian left Old Trafford and the club’s interest in Amrabat has not faded. An additional £22m deal was mooted this summer, with the Moroccan ace appearing as someone who could massively boost Uinted’s midfield options.
Amrabat was so impressive at the World Cup, proving to be a monstrous physical presence and providing non-stop energy, so he could be a fantastic asset to the Reds, having been hailed as a “superstar” by journalist Thomas Mlambo.
Now that Casemiro is 31, United can see the arrival of Fiorentina executor as a good move, allowing for more rotation in that position, keeping the Brazilian veteran fresh in the process, especially with the Champions League to be considered. next season.
Amrabat could be an instant upgrade for both Fred and Scott McTominay given his international pedigree on the biggest stages last year, and while United’s current duo are solid players in their day, those at Old Trafford could feel the need to improve as Erik Ten Hag side will shift gears in 2023/24, with the pair tied to exits. Sounds like a signing that makes a lot of sense, especially as Amrabat appears to be at the peak of his career with a Transfermarkt rating and the chance to join arguably one of the biggest clubs in world football, hopefully. also, is good to reject.
Amrabat even has the same agent as Luke Shaw and it looks like the two could be teammates for the Red Devils soon.

Harry Kane to Man united Here we go,as player chooses Man UTD as His preferred destination, medical soon
Harry Kane has decided he wants to quit Tottenham for Man Utd this summer after reports that Spurs could now sell their star striker.
The England international has just a year remaining on his contract with Tottenham and he could leave on a free transfer next summer if a resolution cannot be found before the end of this transfer window.
Man Utd made him their priority ahead of the summer transfer window but quickly realised that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy had no desire to sell Kane to their Premier League rivals.
That is why Bayern Munich’s interest in Kane has been entertained to some extent with the Bavarians lodging two unsuccessful bids for the England skipper.
Tottenham are determined to keep hold of their striker this summer with a new contract offered to Kane, which is a significant increase on his current £200k-a-week terms.
However, there is now pressure from the top of the north London club to sell with reports last night insisting that Tottenham owner Joe Lewis is urging Levy to sell Kane if the striker won’t agree to a fresh deal.
And now Football Insider insist that Kane won’t be signing that new contract as he ‘wants to quit’ Tottenham this summer but that Bayern Munich is ‘not his first choice’.
Instead, they claim that he is hoping Man Utd now make a renewed effort to sign him with the Premier League side his ‘preferred destination this summer’.
Man Utd have been ‘given fresh hope’ by Tottenham’s willingness to ‘part with their talisman in the final weeks of the window if he doesn’t sign a new contract’.
It is understood that ‘the England captain is aware of the difficulty of striking a potential deal with negotiations between Tottenham and United expected to be fraught.
Football Insider adds:
‘The Bundesliga winners are in regular contact with Kane’s camp and believe they have a firm verbal agreement with the player.
‘However, it is believed he would prefer a move to Man United – where the London-born superstar would have the opportunity to break Alan Shearer’s all-time Premier League scoring record.’
Kane, who has 213 Premier League goals to his name, is currently 47 goals behind Shearer’s all-time Premier League goalscoring record of 260 and the 29-year-old could realistically beat that record in two more seasons.
Fabrizio Romano tweeted last night playing down Man Utd hopes of signing Kane with the Red Devils now fixated on getting a deal for Atalanta’s Rasmus Hojlund over the line.

Man Utd takeoverг: Avгam Glazeг gives seven-word answer to update question to Aгѕenal game
The MancҺeѕteг United takeoverг ѕaga has been rumbling for almost a year.
Avгam Glazeг, owner of MancҺeѕteг United, gave an eloquent answer when asked if he could provide an update on the planned acquisition ahead of this victory. All over the United States.
The American billionaire family has remained tight-lipped about the situation surrounding the club’s future, despite an initial attempt to sell United in November. Qataгi bankeг SҺeikҺ Jaѕѕim has made a bid of more than £5bn to buy the club, while INEOS Siг boss Jim Ratcliffe has also bid for around 60%, which would boost value. they are around the same piece.
But despite the latest offer months ago, there have been almost no updates with deals seemingly stalled. There was no dialogue with the fans and it is now clear that the Americans can deflate and decide to stay old from the club.
Avгam, who is in the majority alongside both Joel, declined to clarify the situation when the progenitor of United’s athletics class asked Һ with Aгѕenal at MetLife Stadium. “I just want to enjoy the game,” Avгam said, once again leaving the fans in the dark.
Several statements have claimed that Glaze is in two minds about what to sell United with part of the family disagreeing with each other. However, Avгam declined to answer whether that was the case when he was again photographed at MetLife Stadium. United fans have been desperate for Glaze to leave the club and have been signing candidates to take her out for several years. They even made it to the United States, where angry fans were filmed shouting “We want the Glaze out” ahead of Saturday night’s game.
Eğik ten Hag’s men won the match 2-0 thanks to goals from Buno Fegnandes and Jadon Sanchos. The United manager is expected to meet with the club’s owners after asking for a seat signing in the United game.
It’s unclear what Ten Hag will discuss at the meeting, but the United executive is likely to discuss the takeover situation and transfer money with Glaze as he pushes new investments into his squad. Speaking about this week’s takeover, Ten Hag said: “This is also the club’s decision. I interact with them often so this is a good opportunity to exchange ideas and we can talk informally. Obviously I can give advice and recommendations, but the decision is up to the club.”
United, meanwhile, have already spent £100m on Andye Onana and Mason Mount, but Ten Hag are still keen to add a real midfielder and another goalkeeper to their roster. It is inconceivable that United should play before playing the likes of Anthony Elanga, Dean Hendeson and Fed who are expected to leave in the days and weeks ahead.
