WHAT HAPPENED? The Morocco international has been linked with a move to Manchester United, although any such deal would mostly hinge on the Reds' ability to offload players before the transfer deadline. As per L'Equipe, Al-Ahli are eager to strengthen their squad even further by bringing in Amrabat, a reliable midfielder who helped Morocco reach the World Cup semi-finals.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: After securing the acquisitions of Roberto Firmino, Riyad Mahrez, Edouard Mendy, and Allan Saint-Maximin, the signing of Amrabat would add further strength and help the club battle for the Saudi Pro League with Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr.
