Man Utd have an option to sign Sofyan Amrabat on a permanent deal but haven't yet decided whether to trigger it.
Manchester United are yet to rule out the possibility of activating the option to sign Sofyan Amrabat on a permanent deal, with a decision likely to be delayed until after the club have finalised Erik ten Hag's future.
That looked unlikely until the Moroccan finished the campaign with a flourish, starting the final four games and playing in the FA Cup final triumph against Manchester City. The 27-year-old solidified United's midfield when he was drafted into the team and made a total of 30 appearances, 17 of them from the start.
Ten Hag pushed for the signing of Amrabat last season, having worked with the midfielder for a year at FC Utrecht, and he has since joined the same agency as the United boss, the Sports Entertainment Group , who played a vital role in getting a loan deal over the line on deadline day last summer. While United continue to wait on a start date for sporting director Dan Ashworth, amid a deadlock in negotiations with Newcastle for the 53-year-old, it is Wilcox and director of football negotiations Matt Hargreaves who are leading plans for the window. With a relatively small budget to play with before sales, they will factor that consideration into any decision on Amrabat.
