Sofyan Amrabat has no agreement in place to join Villarreal

Speculation surrounding the future of Sofyan Amrabat has intensified ahead of the summer transfer window, but reports linking the midfielder to Villarreal CF have been firmly dismissed.

Amrabat, who belongs to Turkish side Fenerbahçe S.K. and is currently on loan at Real Betis, has drawn attention from several European clubs following a string of impressive performances in Spain.

His consistent displays have reignited transfer talk, with Villarreal reportedly among the admirers monitoring his situation.

However, Real Betis’ sporting director has categorically denied any agreement between the Moroccan international and Villarreal. The club official rejected claims suggesting that Amrabat is no longer part of Betis’ plans for next season, making it clear that the midfielder remains firmly in their thinking.

Sources close to the situation indicate that the clarification reflects Real Betis’ genuine desire to retain the 27-year-old beyond his current loan spell. Despite that intention, the Spanish outfit has yet to reach a definitive agreement with Fenerbahçe to secure a permanent transfer for the remainder of his contract.

Earlier reports had suggested that Villarreal were preparing a move to strengthen their squad with Amrabat ahead of the new campaign. For now, though, there is no formal arrangement in place, and his immediate future appears tied to ongoing negotiations between Betis and his parent club.

With the transfer window approaching, Amrabat’s strong form has ensured he remains a sought-after figure, setting the stage for what could become one of the more closely watched transfer sagas of the summer.
