Amrabat latest
United are said to be well short of meeting Fiorentina’s price tag for star midfielder Sofyan Amrabat.
Amrabat is said to be a target of United’s this summer as they look to strengthen their depth in the middle of the park by potentially replacing Scott McTominay. According to La Nazione (via ViolaNews), United value Amrabat at around £21.6million, while Fiorentina are said to be demanding £25.9million.
Fiorentina have held firm on Amrabat so far, adamant they will keep the Moroccan if their price tag is not met this summer.

Hide AdAnother goalkeeper targeted
United are not done in the goalkeeping department, according to the latest reports.
The Red Devils have already spent big for Andre Onana in their bid to replace David De Gea, but they also need to replace Dean Henderson. According to the Daily Mail, Altay Bayindir is the chosen target. It’s claimed United believe they can snatch away the Fenerbahce goalkeeper for £5million or less this summer.
It’s claimed Fenerbahce could offload Bayindir once they complete a deal for Dominik Livakovic, which they are expected to do in the near future. United were also linked with Livakovic earlier in the year, but Onana became the number one target between the sticks over the summer.
