Xavi cries, this Barça target is closer and closer to join Manchester United

Having already signed Mason Mount for United, the Dutch coach Erik Ten Hag could surprise the fans with an unexpected signing in the next few days. The Dutchman is pulling the trigger on the transfer of every player on his wishlist and he is slowly building the squad he needs to make his project at the club grow as expected.

At the moment, Manchester United is immersed in the signings of Andre Onana from Inter Milan and Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta. However, in the last few hours a new player has been linked with United to improve the team’s midfield. Ten Hag is looking for a replacement for Fred, who could be close to exit from the club soon, and he could have decided the player to sign in the next few hours.

According to the British media, first talks have taken place for Sofyan Amrabat to Manchester United. The player from Fiorentina was targeted by FC Barcelona and is considered a modern positional midfielder and an excellent tackler. Amrabat is really appreciated by Ten Hag and the player could become a Manchester United player soon as the club is monitoring him very closely.

The player is closer than ever to arriving to Old Trafford

In this sense, the race to sign Amrabat has Manchester United as a main interested team in the player, but they are not the only one. Sofyan Amrabat's future looks exciting, with several big-name clubs looking for him, such as Atletico de Madrid and Milan, and it will be interesting to follow the outcome of this story closely, as Manchester United could speed up in the next few weeks to sign the player, valued at €30 million and potentially one of the best options to improve the midfield of a top team.
