Erik ten Hag puts in 'express request' to club chiefs to sign Fiorentina’s Sofyan Amrabat

The Dutch manager is reportedly desperate to sign a new midfielder.

 So far, Manchester United have had three major signings in the ongoing transfer window in goalkeeper Andre Onana, midfielder Mason Mount, and striker Rasmus Hojlund. All of United’s signing have been designed to cater to missing pieces and roles in the United squad.

Andre Onana replaced longtime goalkeeper David De Gea, who had largely fallen out of favour with the management. Mason Mount was brought in to rescue a thinning midfield, and Rasmus Hojlund was brought in because the Red Devils were clearly lacking a striker, and meanwhile the additional goalscoring responsibilities fell on winger Marcus Rashford, he will have someone to cross into the box now onwards since Hojlund has arrived.

However, it is being reported that manger Erik Ten Hag is not done with transactions this summer. And with the transfer window scheduled to close in approximately a weeks’ time, the Dutch manger is still looking to sign a quality midfielder, with Mason Mount picking up an injury which could aggravate itself as the season progresses.

At the moment, it is being reported that his next target is Fiorentina’s Sofyan Amrabat. Ten Hag is reportedly a huge admirer of his talent after the 27-year-old Moroccan was impressive at the World Cup and contributed to Morocco’s head-turning run up to the semi-finals, a first in their history.

Sofyan Amrabat has been on the radar of many European giants since impressing at the World Cup. With reports suggesting that Liverpool tried to hijack the sale. Atletico Madrid have also registered interest in the midfielder.

Sources close to the players have said that he himself is keen on the move, and that personal terms will be no roadblock to the deal. However, as the transfer window is scheduled to close within a week, United will have to offload a few players for a certain amount of money to get a move for Amrabat sanctioned.
