Amrabat’s dream move to Manchester United materialized after expressing his desire to join the club early in the summer transfer window. The 27-year-old midfielder had put his training at Fiorentina on hold as the Italian club awaited the green light from MU.
Negotiations between the clubs continued until the final days of the summer transfer window, culminating in a one-year loan agreement. As part of the deal, MU will pay Fiorentina a substantial loan fee of 10 million Euros, with a buyout clause firmly set at 20 million Euros. Additionally, an extra 5 million Euros will be due should MU decide to make Amrabat’s transfer permanent.
This transfer saga marks the crowning achievement in MU’s summer recruitment efforts. Earlier on September 1st, the club had already unveiled the signing of goalkeeper Bayindir from Fenerbahce.
Sofyan Amrabat is slated to undergo a comprehensive medical examination with MU on September 2nd. Unfortunately, he won’t be eligible to make his debut in the upcoming clash against Arsenal this weekend due to the tight schedule. Nonetheless, Amrabat’s arrival bolsters MU’s midfield and enhances the squad’s depth for the forthcoming season. Keep an eye out for his official debut in the iconic Red Devils’ jersey as fans eagerly await the impact he’ll bring to the team!
