Sofyan Amrabat sends Man United transfer hint with six-word message after summer decision

Former Manchester United loanee Sofyan Amrabat has taken to social media to send a message following his exit from Old Trafford.

Some of the work he is doing shows him in what appears to be United training shorts. They do however have the squad number 20 on them, the number worn by Diogo Dalot since the 2018/19 season.

Alongside the video, Amrabat wrote the caption: “Train insane or remain the same #ready.”

The 27-year-old played 30 times in all competitions for United last season, although a lot of those came from the bench, especially in the Premier League. If United make a move to re-sign the Moroccan it could depend on their success in a chase for Paris Saint Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte.

It is claimed that the Uruguay international has agreed personal terms with the
