Sixth Deal Completed – Medical Appointment Set as Man Utd Star Joins Top European Club for Agreed Fee

Manchester United are close to selling Fred to Fenerbahce and will shortly make a bid in the region of £26 million to sign Sofyan Amrabat

The BBC reported last night that the Red Devils accepted a sum of £12.9 million (15 million euros) to sell Fred to the Turkish giants.

According to today’s edition of La Gazzetta Dello Sport (press image below), United remain in pole position to sign Amrabat from Fiorentina.

The renowned Italian outlet claims that now that Manchester United have concluded the sale of their Brazilian midfielder, they would make a bid close to Viola’s asking price of £26 million to sign the Moroccan.

Gazzetta mentions Juventus’ interest but states that a move to Turin is only feasible if they can gather sufficient finances or if Fiorentina agrees to a loan arrangement.

It should be noted that the 26-year-old holding midfielder’s current contract in Florence expires on June 30, 2024, therefore the Serie A club would prefer to dispose him on a permanent basis during the current transfer window.

Fred has been a hardworking center-fielder for us, but the Samba star is highly unreliable and not a great play breaker.

In the FIFA World Cup, Amrabat helped Morocco finish fourth.

Is the Atlas Lions star good enough to replace Fred at Old Trafford?
