Sofyan Amrabat emerges as an option
One of the fun storylines coming out of the World Cup has been the Moroccan National Team winning their group over Croatia and Belgium. They managed to beat Belgium and Canada while drawing with Croatia to be one of five teams to go unbeaten in the group stage. Obviously, they have some good players like Hakim Ziyech of Chelsea and Achraf Hakimi of PSG, but one of their standout players of the tournament has been Sofyan Ambrabat who plays for ACF Fiorentina in Italy. Now, Ambrat is being linked with Liverpool.
News #Amrabat: Been told that many clubs from the Premier League observing him, especially #LFC (next to Bellingham & Caicedo). No negotiations now but he is open to leave #Fiorentina. Salary now around €3-4m + Boni. Price tag: More than €30m! Key player! @SkySportDE pic.twitter.com/1JlE0rHVEM
— Florian Plettenberg (@Plettigoal) December 2, 2022Florian Plettenburg of Sky Sports Germany has been on top of a few Liverpool rumours recently, namely the Jude Bellingham stuff. Yesterday he tweeted that Amrabat is being monitored by Liverpool as one of the players that could be targeted to help rebuild the midfield for the Reds.
Amrabat is a central midfielder that has spent four seasons in Italy between Fiorentina and Hellas Verona. He’s featured in 13 league matches and 7 Europa Conference League matches this season. He has 42 international caps for Morocco.
Morocco takes on Spain in the Round of 16 on Tuesday and if they have hopes of advancing, Amrabat will need to play a key role.
