Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano and the Athletic newspaper both confirmed that Man Utd reached an agreement to sign Sofyan Amrabat from Fiorentina after the club's representatives flew to Italy this morning (September 1) to negotiate.
Sofyan Amrabat joins MU on a 1-season loan deal with an option to buy next year
The Red Devils made a loan offer for the Moroccan midfielder on Thursday, for a fee of €2 million, and included a clause that would allow him to 'return' mid-season (January 2024) if he did not meet their requirements. Fiorentina, of course, did not agree.
Faced with the urgent situation, Man Utd's recruitment team flew to Fiorentina to negotiate and finally the two sides reached an agreement.
Specifically, Man Utd will borrow Amrabat for 1 season with a fee of 10 million euros, with a buyout clause next year worth 25 million euros (including 5 million euros in additional fees), if the Red Devils want.
Sofyan Amrabat will definitely be a Man Utd player before the Premier League summer transfer window closes at 11pm on Friday (1/9). Man Utd cannot sign him on a permanent basis at this time due to financial fair play restrictions.
Erik ten Hag confirmed that Sergio Reguilon has joined Man Utd in training.
Sofyan Amrabat is Man Utd's sixth summer signing to bolster Erik ten Hag's squad for the 2023/24 campaign, following goalkeeper Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir, defender Sergio Reguilon, midfielder Mason Mount, and striker Rasmus Hojlund.
Coach Erik ten Hag confirmed that left-back Sergio Reguilon, on loan from Tottenham, has now joined MU in training.
Meanwhile, Amrabat will need to race to adapt to Man Utd and the Premier League having played just 45 minutes for Fiorentina, including pre-season since last season's Europa League final defeat to West Ham 2-1 in June.
