Amrabat returned to the club's training facilities last month but is believed to be desperate to leave Fiorentina – who promised him in January that he could move in summer. Speaking to Voetbal Primeur earlier this summer, Amrabat's agent Mahmoud El Boustati explained: "Quite a few clubs are interested in Sofyan. It is now a matter of making the right choice. He is still just a Fiorentina player. If something interesting comes up, Sofyan is open to the step, Fiorentina are too. There are two, three clubs that he is open to."

The Reds missed out on both Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia – who are joining Chelsea from Brighton and Southampton respectively.
