Manchester United transfer target Sofyan Amrabat is also being courted by Liverpool, with the Reds set to lose the services of Fabinho and club captain Jordan Henderson
Sofyan Amrabat has made it clear that he has no desire to join Liverpool this summer amid transfer interest from Manchester United.
Amrabat, 26, has been courted by several of Europe’s elite since impressing in Morocco’s historic run to the World Cup semi-finals back in 2022 and is expected to move on from Fiorentina in the summer transfer window.
The sought-after playmaker has qualities which would make him an ideal fit for Liverpool, who are expected to lose the services of both Fabinho and club captain Jordan Henderson in the coming weeks.
However, it appears as though Jurgen Klopp will be forced to look elsewhere for midfield reinforcements.
According to Corriere della Sera, via GFNI, Amrabat has already turned down Liverpool’s advances in favour of Manchester United whom, according to the report, he has already agreed to sign for.
Amrabat has been at Fiorentina since 2020 but the Italian outfit are ready to cash in on their midfield talisman this summer – provided that one of his admirers is willing to meet their €30million (£25.8m) asking price.
And while Manchester United’s current priority is securing a new No.9 ahead of the new Premier League campaign, Erik ten Hag is believed to be keen on adding another midfielder to his squad in the final weeks of the transfer window if the club can raise additional funds by offloading several fringe players.
Ten Hag is more than aware of Amrabat’s qualities given that the Fiorentina ace came through the ranks at FC Utrecht while the Dutchman was at the helm. United have already splashed out around £60m on Mason Mount in order to bolster their midfield options.
Despite intense transfer speculation, Fiorentina general manager Joe Barone revealed last week that nobody had tabled a concrete proposal for Amrabat’s services.
And Barone has urged the midfielder to stay focused ahead of the start of the new Serie A season given that there has been little movement over his future.
Speaking earlier this month, Barone told Sky Sport Italy: “He [Amrabat] is also very attached to the team and to me too, we speak in English and we talk almost every day.
At the moment nothing official has arrived, I told him to come here concentrated because he is a Fiorentina player.
“He must have his head here and be ready for the start of the league, then if something comes we’ll evaluate it. We have an already very strong midfield department.”

The unveiling of the paint scheme is also expected to include a series of promotional events leading up to the race. Fans can look forward to meet-and-greets, special merchandise, and perhaps even appearances from popular Star Wars characters, creating an immersive experience that transcends the typical racetrack atmosphere.

Manchester United considering €70m swoop for PSG striker in January to boost forward – Reports
According to reports from CaughtOffside, Manchester United are understood to have a genuine interest in the transfer of Paris Saint-Germain striker Randal Kolo Muani, though he is not expected to be available this January.
CaughtOffside is aware of Kolo Muani was previously signed by PSG for a hefty sum of money—up to €95 million—while Man United is believed to value the France international at closer to €70 million as they search for upfront reinforcements.
Kolo Muani might be a good fit for the Red Devils, even though he hasn’t quite displayed his finest play in a PSG jersey.
After Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee’s setbacks at Old Trafford, the team could definitely use a more seasoned and tested alternative up front.
The 25-year-old remains highly regarded by his current club, however, and sources have indicated there is little chance of him being sold this winter, even if the situation could perhaps be looked at again by next summer.
United have invested in the future by bringing in two young forwards in Hojlund and Zirkzee in the last two summers, so it might perhaps be a bit of a surprise to see the club spending big on yet another striker.
Still, one has to wonder how much more time Hojlund in particular will be given as he’s not made much of an impact in over a year in Manchester now, so there could be a case for bringing in Kolo Muani as an upgrade.
At the same time, if PSG aren’t keen to sell, then this could potentially mean paying a lot of money to make them change their minds, and that might be seen as a bit of a risk, considering that the former Eintracht Frankfurt man isn’t in the best form right now.

It seems that Manchester United isn’t giving up on the prospect of signing RB Leipzig star Xavi Simons, even though no agreement was struck during the most recent transfer window.
Man United showed a keen interest in the Dutch attacker for a significant portion of the summer, according to Fabrizio Romano, who stated that the club became even more interested in Simons following his Dutch team’s performance at Euro 2024.
In the end, a deal remained far off, even though Simons made a suggestion that he would return to Leipzig on another Paris Saint-Germain loan.
This advice came to pass in July when he agreed to join a new one-year loan with Leipzig.
Even as he returns to Germany, however, United have not given up on their pursuit of the Dutch forward.
Christian Falk, the head of football at the BILD Group, revealed that United may just manage to hijack a potential deal for Simons being formulated by bitter rivals Manchester City.
“United and Liverpool were interested in the player historically, but also Manchester City are in the race and he would be a perfect fit for Pep Guardiola’s system,” Falk noted. He also revealed why United may be ahead in the race to sign Simons.
“Liverpool have a coach who can speak the same language. There’s a Dutch coach also present at Manchester United. So, these offer huge chances for either club,” he explained, suggesting that Simons would appreciate playing under a coach who speaks the same language.
For United, Simons is a young, versatile player who could significantly bolster their attacking options over the long-term future.
It’s no secret that Erik ten Hag is a fan of the Dutch rising star, praising Simons for his performance against England in the Euro 2024 semifinals.
“I enjoyed Xavi Simons in that game. The drive he has, the passion with which he conquers balls and recognises situations are top,” Ten Hag stated. “His enormous drive as well. That is almost un-Dutch. I think you can see that he was trained abroad. He almost has a southern European doggedness in his game.”
Of course, Simons’ impressive performances extend beyond his appearances for the Netherlands. He was a key player for Leipzig last season, scoring eight goals and providing 13 assists in 32 Bundesliga games last season.
Although Simons’ market value is €80 million, according to Transfermarkt, United may just manage to afford him comfortably should they do adequate financial planning before bidding on the player once his loan deal expires
