With Reguilon set for a move to Old Trafford, Manchester United are continuing to work on a deal to sign Amrabat. Fiorentina prefer a permanent deal, while United are conscious of complying with FFP rules and are exploring a loan.

It is thought a loan with an option - which triggers into an obligation - could be a compromise the Serie A club would accept, but that would depend on the loan fee and permanent price.

It is clear the 27-year-old wants to move to United and has not been training with the Fiorentina first-team squad while his future remains unresolved. The Moroccan international has one year left on his contract with the option of a further year.
