Man Utd handed huge boost in signing Sofyan Amrabat

Manchester United have been handed a huge boost in signing Sofyan Amrabat from Fiorentina before the transfer deadline.

The Moroccan has been linked with the Red Devils from the beginning of the summer but there has been no offer on the table.

However, the situation could soon change as Fiorentina are now ready to consider loan offers for the 26-year-old midfielder.

The Serie A outfit were initially firm on the €30m asking price, but they have changed their stance over the last 48 hours.

They are now prepared to accept a temporary deal with the right to buy, and United could soon make an approach for him.

The Red Devils have been hampered by Financial Fair Play this summer which has limited their spending in recent weeks.

The club know that they can't spend without outgoings, and Amrabat's availability on loan could be a huge boost for them.

Aside from Amrabat, they could sign a left-back on loan as well. Chelsea's Marc Cucurella is currently the top target for the club.
