Manchester United could be set to launch a bid for Sofyan Amrabat as early as this weekend. A new report in Italy has claimed the move is intensifying in the Fiorentina camp.

The Italian reports have always placed this move high up in the realms of possibility. However, elsewhere any close links between Amrabat and United are played down.

There is definitely an interest from both player and club to do a deal this summer. Although the links are concrete, it seems as though some outlets are over estimating the reality of the story.
