Juventus sets sights on Sofyan Amrabat as a ‘priority’ target

Following disappointing setbacks in their pursuit of Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Franck Kessie, Juventus is now turning its attention to Moroccan midfielder Sofyan Amrabat.

Manager Massimiliano Allegri is adamant about acquiring the services of Amrabat, as he believes the team is in desperate need of a player with his skill set.

Amrabat, who currently plays for Fiorentina, has caught the attention of Allegri due to his impressive performances in the midfield especially last season and in the FIFA World Cup 2022.

The Juventus boss believes that the Moroccan international’s quickness and versatility will greatly benefit the team’s gameplay.

However, securing the services of Amrabat will not come cheap for Juventus. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Fiorentina is demanding a sum of €25 million along with additional bonuses in exchange for letting go of their prized midfielder.

This hefty price tag has not deterred Manchester United, who are also vying for Amrabat’s signature, adding another layer of competition for Juventus.

The interest from both clubs comes as no surprise, as Amrabat’s consistent displays of talent have not gone unnoticed.

His ability to win duels, drive the ball forward with purpose, and contribute to both the attacking and defensive aspects of the game make him an attractive prospect for any team.

Juventus, keen on reinforcing their midfield, regards Amrabat as a player who can bring much-needed stability and dynamism to their midfield.

Allegri’s desire to acquire him at any cost exhibits just how highly he rates the Moroccan, and the Bianconeri will undoubtedly do everything in their power to secure his services.
