Liverpool “will evaluate” Fiorentina’s Sofyan Amrabat ahead of the January transfer window, with them keen to add a midfielder to their squad.
That’s according to agent Gianluca Nani, who believes Fiorentina would be wise to sell up if offers for the midfielder arrive.
Amrabat has earned himself a host of suitors following his impressive performances for Morocco, where he has helped his country progress to the knockout stages of the World Cup, where they take on Spain today in the last 16.
Those displays have not gone unnoticed, with several sides believed to be keen on him and Liverpool named among them.
Jurgen Klopp is believed to be keen to add to his midfield, perhaps as early as January, particularly after Juventus loanee Arthur was ruled out until February at the earliest.
Several reports have named them among those keen on Amrabat, with it claimed yesterday that they are already in contact with his agent.
“Amrabat is a very good player who didn’t start well. Maybe he’s not among the top three in the world in his role but he’s a good player who is justifying the money spent on him by Fiorentina,” he told Tuttomercatoweb.
“He’s at the centre of the project. Liverpool on him? I haven’t heard the word, also because I don’t look for it, I have a different job.
“But it is true that Liverpool are looking for more than one player in that role. I don’t know if Amrabat is on their list, then it’s difficult to say if he’s worthy of Liverpool: they’ll evaluate him even if in the Premier League the intensity needed is great.
“On the figures, if Liverpool want a player, they will spend even 100 million. It depends if they rate him as a Liverpool player or not.
“As far as Fiorentina are concerned, I am always for giving up in the face of fair offers and then reinvesting in the appropriate way.”
