Liverpool are attempting to beat Manchester United to the signing of Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat.
Sofyan Amrabat is now a target for a move to Liverpool, who are looking for fresh midfielders.
This is according to a number of reports, which began in the Netherlands with statements from the newspaper Algemeen Dagblad.
According to them, Liverpool are ‘on track’ to complete the signing of Amrabat, with an agreement in place.
According to reports, Liverpool and Amrabat have reached an agreement on a transaction worth roughly €35 million (£30 million).
Fabrizio Romano reports there is no bid on the table at the moment, but Liverpool is ‘now informed’ about the requirements required to sign Amrabat.
According to Romano, Liverpool is still considering their possibilities for a holding midfielder, but Amrabat is definitely in the running.
According to TalkSPORT, Amrabat has now conducted negotiations with Liverpool about a shock move to Anfield.
Manchester United has been after Amrabat all summer, but Financial Fair Play concerns have prevented a deal from being completed.
Liverpool could make a move for Amrabat, which would be devastating for Erik ten Hag, who worked with Amrabat at FC Utrecht.
Sofyan Amrabat might be joining Wataru Endo at Liverpool.
Over the last week, the Liverpool midfield pursuit has been chaotic.
A push for Romeo Lavia, then a switch to Moises Caicedo, seeing him join Chelsea, returning to Lavia, and then seeing him choose Chelsea as well… It’s been difficult to keep track of.
