The competition for midfielder Amrabat’s signature has heated up as Liverpool enters the fray alongside their arch-rivals. The Morocco international has remained absent from Fiorentina’s pre-season activities, as heightened interest from various clubs, particularly Manchester United, swirls around him. Recent developments, however, point to Liverpool’s growing interest in securing the services of the 26-year-old.
Taking a broader view, Liverpool’s need for fresh midfield additions has intensified following the departures of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson, who both joined Saudi Pro League outfits Al-Ittihad and Al-Ettifaq respectively. The Reds find themselves in a critical position after missing out on their primary targets, with Chelsea successfully snatching Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia from their grasp.
