Man Utd make transfer bid for Serie A midfielder

Manchester United have made a first bid to sign Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat, according to Corriere dello Sport.

The Red Devils are interested in signing the Morocco international, and they have apparently agreed personal terms with him.

It is now revealed that an opening offer has been made to the Serie A outfit, but the proposal has been swiftly turned down.

La Viola currently value their prized asset at €30m, and United's recent bid has fallen well short of the valuation set by them.

The Red Devils are bound to make a fresh bid in the coming weeks, but they may need to be wary of interest from Liverpool.

The Reds are currently negotiating the transfer of Fabinho to Al-Ittihad and they could then focus on purchasing another midfielder.

They have already signed Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, but are planning to make another midfield addition soon.

Moises Caicedo is said to be expensive for them. They could well meet the demands of Fiorentina to land Amrabat this summer.
