The Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, renowned for his insights into player and coach transfers, disclosed that both Barcelona and Juventus had expressed interest in terminating Moroccan international Sofyan Amrabat’s loan spell with Manchester United, with the intention of recruiting him during the past winter transfer window.
Romano further elaborated that both Barcelona and Juventus, along with Fiorentina, Amrabat’s parent club, had their proposals to recall the Moroccan midfielder rejected by the English club.
Moreover, the same source concluded that Manchester United’s management had not informed Barcelona and Juventus about Amrabat’s situation with the English club, whether regarding the activation of the purchase clause or his return to Fiorentina.
