Sources: Sofyan Amrabat delegation travels to Manchester as Man United talks advance

Sofyan Amrabat’s agents have travelled to Manchester ahead of a proposed move to Man United, sources have told Football Insider.

A bid is expected to be lodged immediately, with the asking price set to be around £30million.

The Morocco international was asked about his future following Fiorentina’s 4-0 triumph over Serie D side Grosseto in a pre-season friendly on Tuesday.

And he remained coy with his answer as he said:“I don’t know if I’m leaving… maybe I can stay here at Fiorentina.

The 26-year-old previously worked under Ten Hag at FC Utrecht, making 50 appearances under the Dutchman, contributing to 11 goals, and with Amrabat into the final 12 months of his Fiorentina deal, a reunion could be on the cards.

The midfielder has plied his trade in the Netherlands, Belgium and Italy during his career, making more than 250 senior club appearances.

He joined Fiorentina from Hellas Verona in January 2020 for around £17million.

The midfielder, who was born in Holland, has also previously played for Utrecht, Feyenoord and Club Brugge.

He has also been capped by his country on 49 occasions and played an important role for Morocco at the World Cup in Qatar and was the star in the Atlas Lions team that reached the semi-finals.

Man United have already strengthened heavily going into the next campaign by signing Mason Mount from Chelsea and Andre Onana from Inter Milan, with business not yet completed as a deal for Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta is also set to be announced.
