Man Utd get Sofyan Amrabat transfer boost as ‘two Saudi offers submitted’

Manchester United are expected to pursue the signing of Sofyan Amrabat after wrapping up the arrival of Rasmus Hojlund.

Manchester United could receive a welcome cash injection from Saudi Arabia with Eric Bailly attracting strong interest from the Middle East. Reports suggest the Red Devils have already received two proposals for the centre-back and there is expectation he will depart in the coming weeks.

That is good news for United in their quest for Sofyan Amrabat as the club are currently looking to raise cash to continue their summer spending.

Amrabat is valued at £25million to £30m and although the asking price is hardly steep, United have already shelled out £179m in transfer fees this window.

According to The Mail, United are now working on the sale of Bailly after receiving the bids from Saudi Arabia.

It’s understood Al Nassr are the favourites for the Ivorian and they could reunite Bailly with former team-mates Cristiano Ronaldo and Alex Telles.

Bailly was left at home by Erik ten Hag for the USA tour and he is free to find a new club.

That said, United would still like to get a fair price for the ex-Villarreal man who spent last season on loan at Marseille.

Meanwhile, Amrabat was left out of the Fiorentina squad to face Newcastle and Nice this weekend.

He is not waiting for the Italian side to agree a fee with United but a deal does not appear to be imminent.

Personal terms won’t be an issue and Fiorentina are willing to do business as the Moroccan is in the final year of his contract.

United are also finalising the departures of two midfielders, which could trigger a move for Amrabat.

Fred is in talks with Galatasaray while other clubs could also enter the battle for the Brazilian.

Real Sociedad are also in talks to sign Donny van de Beek from United on a permanent deal.

Both have been told they are free to leave the Red Devils this summer at the right price.

United could also look to sign another goalkeeper too, if Dean Henderson departs for Nottingham Forest.

The crux of their summer transfer business is now complete with the exception of two or three more additions.

The Red Devils beat Lens 3-1 at Old Trafford in their penultimate pre-season friendly on Saturday and they take on Athletic Bilbao on Sunday following a quick turnaround.
