Manchester United about to be overtaken in race to sign player – Club have new money, ‘shifted’ attention

As reports from the Italian media continue to say that Manchester United are still to place their bid for Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat, we now see reports claiming the player could end up somewhere else.

Juventus are today sorting the exit of Denis Zakaria, who’s reportedly moving to Monaco on a €20m deal.

As Sport Mediaset covers the story, they claim the Bianconeri now have room for Amrabat, as they can overtake Manchester United in the race for the player.

It’s claimed Juventus have ‘shifted’ their attention to the Fiorentina player now that the Switzerland international is gone, and the club have already negotiated with La Viola this summer, agreeing Arthur’s move, and could now engage in talks for the Moroccan.

The request for Amrabat is said to be of €30m, but the Old Lady would be more interested in adding a player to that potential deal to lower the money aspect of it.

What seems interesting is that this time, Sport Mediaset doesn’t even give a mention to Manchester United.

It seems clear the Red Devils haven’t made new moves, and they now even get ignored in a story about his future.
