Manchester United has agreed on terms with Fiorentina for Morocco international Sofyan Amrabat, and the midfielder will join the Red Devils on deadline day.

Both clubs have had discussions since June, but United appeared to have cooled off on the player. However, injuries and poor form in the Manchester United midfield have pushed the club into the window, and the deal is almost over the line.

Amrabat had a great World Cup in Qatar, where he helped Morocco reach the semifinals of the World Cup and was part of the Fiorentina side that got to the finals of the Europa League last season, where the Italian side lost to West Ham.

Amrabat will join Mason Mount, Andre Onana, Rasmus Hojlund, and Altay Bayindir as United’s new signings for the season.
