United's midfield puzzle continues to evolve as the club grapples with the decision on Amrabat's future. The Moroccan international joined United on loan from Fiorentina last September for £8.5 million ($10.9 million) but includes an option for United to make the transfer permanent for €20 million (£17/$21.5m) plus €5 million (£4.23m/$5.37m) in add-ons, an option set to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/manchester-united-to-cut-ties-sofyan-amrabat/bltf664c6e4754e3f49" target="_blank">expire at the end of June.</a>

WHAT HAPPENED?

According to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/live-blogs/transfer-news-live-latest-updates/1gAvICrKb71l/zEe0tdPa81bo/" target="_blank">The Athletic</a>, Amrabat has already informed Fiorentina that he does not see his future at the club and wants a transfer. But with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/sofyan-amrabat-update-man-utd-future/bltea1fe299177be61a" target="_blank">his future at Old Trafford yet to be sorted</a>, the midfielder's future hangs in the balance.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Despite the challenges, Amrabat's presence was crucial in United's final push of the season. The 27-year-old started in the club's last four matches, including the FA Cup final victory against Manchester City. This stint showcased his resilience and adaptability, hinting at the potential he still holds.Speaking to <a href="https://x.com/ZS_Voetbal/status/1794449501425467540" target="_blank">Ziggo Sports</a> after the FA Cup final, Amrabat said, "Do I already know what I’m going to do next year? No. We are going to talk. Staying is certainly an option. Look, I think it has been a very difficult season. For Manchester United, it needs to be much better, and also for me personally. We are going to talk. Manchester United are the biggest club in the world, so who wouldn’t want to play football here? But all parties have to be happy with each other, so we will sit down now and see what happens."

WHAT AMRABAT SAID

The uncertainty surrounding Amrabat is just one piece of the broader puzzle United face this summer. The club is in a state of flux, with several players' futures hanging in the balance. Amrabat played 21 times in the Premier League this season but was never a guaranteed starter. His mixed performances and the need to fill gaps due to injuries have left fans unsure about whether he can consistently deliver at the highest level. While he has expressed a willingness to stay at Manchester United, much will depend on the club's decisions and strategic direction. If United opts to retain him, he will need to step up and deliver consistently to justify the investment.
