Manchester United’s chances of signing Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat this summer have received a significant boost.
A report from TuttoMercatoWeb suggests that United may now secure the services of the African midfielder at a reduced cost.
Initially, the Serie A club had been seeking €25 million for Amrabat, but they seem willing to consider a lower offer, possibly as low as €20 million.
Erik ten Hag is in urgent need of strengthening his central midfield options at Old Trafford before the transfer window shuts. Casemiro’s performances in the first two Premier League matches have been notably subpar.
To secure a spot in the top four, and even contend for the league title, it’s crucial for Ten Hag to complete the signing of Amrabat.

Fiorentina might be open to reducing their asking price for the Moroccan midfielder to as low as €20 million. Given this opportunity, United should make the move to sign him, as he would be a valuable addition to the squad.
Amrabat possesses qualities that align with what United currently lack. He brings energy, dynamism, athleticism, speed, and strength to the team.
Furthermore, he excels in ball possession and has the ability to dictate the game’s pace from the central midfield position.

If United can secure his services for just €20 million, it would be a steal and one of the standout bargains of the summer transfer window.
