The Fiorentina midfielder, who spent last season on loan at Manchester United, has returned to Italy amid speculation about his future. It appears that he is not in Raffaele Palladino’s plans for the upcoming season, which has led to rumors of a permanent move away from the club. Manchester United, struggling to strengthen their midfield this summer, are contemplating re-signing the 28-year-old for the next season.
Meanwhile, Fenerbahce has reportedly made a second bid for the Moroccan player, according to Turkish publication Fanatik [via Football Italia]. However, their latest offer is still below Fiorentina’s asking price, giving United a chance to respond with their own bid.
Fenerbahce and José Mourinho are keen on acquiring Amrabat, with their latest offer rising to €12 million (£10.2m/$13.1m). Despite this, it falls short of Fiorentina’s €15 million (£12.7m/$16.3m) asking price. Fiorentina is eager to complete the sale this summer before his contract expires next year.
Amrabat has been excluded from Fiorentina’s preseason tour, indicating that the club anticipates his departure before the season begins. The final destination for the midfielder remains uncertain, with England and Turkey both in the mix.
