MANCHESTER UNITED transfer target Sofyan Amrabat could be granted permission to leave Fiorentina in the summer.
The midfielder’s agent has revealed that the Italian club is open to the idea of letting him go, but only if a suitable offer is received.
Mohamed Sinouh told Kora Plus: “For now we don’t have any offer for the summer, but now at least Fiorentina is willing to listen.

“We received many offers during the January transfer window, including one from Manchester United, but an agreement cannot be reached.”
The Red Devils made Amrabat a top transfer target ahead of the January window.

Amrabat’s brother, Nordin Amrabat, confirmed United’s interest when speaking to Voetbal Primeur last week.
He said: “I can name three clubs who were concrete in the last two or three days of the transfer window.
