Man Utd taking matters into their own hands to force through Sofyan Amrabat deal

Manchester United are taking matters into their own hands in an attempt to sign Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat.

Erik ten Hag has already signed Mason Mount, Andre Onana, Rasmus Hojlund and most recently goalkeeper Altay Bayindir, who completed his move from Fenerbahce.
