Manchester United are edging closer towards signing Inter Milan goalkeeper André Onana and will shift focus to other targets in the summer window. One of the areas the Red Devils could look to strengthen is midfield, despite already adding Mason Mount to their squad.
Sofyan Amrabat is included in Manchester United’s list. On Tuesday, Corriere dello Sport suggested the club had made an offer which was ‘far from’ Fiorentina’s demand of €30m.
Erik ten Hag seems to be driving the Premier League side’s interest in the midfielder, if Il Tirreno are to be believed.
Manchester United haven’t yet knocked on the Serie A side’s door with a suitable offer to secure the Morocco international’s services.
The report says Fiorentina need ‘at least €30m’ and don’t seem ready to offer any discount even though everyone is aware of his ‘willingness to embrace’ a new club this summer.
Il Tirreno say ‘time will be needed’ for the English club. That’s because they are ‘waiting for offers’ for Fred, Donny van de Beek and Scott McTominay and the funds raised from their sales are needed to ‘strike the blow’ and sign the Fiorentina player.
There’s a likelihood a midfield signing will also have to wait until after a striker is secured, with Rasmus Højlund looking the likeliest option.
