Player ‘holding his suitcase’ waiting for Manchester United transfer – Offer can arrive ‘at any time’

As you well know, Manchester United, as well as preparing their season opener against Wolves, are working on the transfer market.

The departure of Fred has opened the door for a new midfielder to come in, and Sofyan Amrabat continues to be the most likely in that department.

Corriere Fiorentino continue to hope that Manchester United will come forward with the necessary money for the Morocco international, and actually believe it’s still very much on the table.

The local newspaper state that while Max Allegri wanted him as well, those above decided against it, meaning it’s the Red Devils who are the frontrunners.

The belief is that Manchester United ‘could present themselves at any time’ with an offer of €26-27m up front plus bonuses that would please Rocco Commisso.

The player, down his end, according to Firenze Viola, has been ‘holding his suitcase for a long time’, but still hasn’t moved.

Much like what Corriere Fiorentino say, the website explain that Manchester United are ‘monitoring’ the situation, but have yet to make their official move.

As for the Juventus idea, Firenze Viola state it ‘never really existed’, meaning the path is clear for Erik ten Hag to get his player, as long as the money is there.
