Man Utd drops big transfer clue by excluding player from squad list.

Last season, Sofyan Amrabat appeared in 30 games for Manchester United. Recently, the team dropped a clue that they are looking to sign a new midfielder in the final two weeks of the transfer window. So far this summer, the Red Devils have already spent a considerable amount, approximately £150m, on players such as Joshua Zirkzee, Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt, and Noussair Mazraoui.

However, due to financial fair play regulations, the club is being careful with their spending and has sold players like Mason Greenwood, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, and Willy Kambwala to balance out the expenses. Despite these efforts, manager Erik ten Hag is still determined to acquire a new midfielder for the team. Their top priority was Paris Saint-Germain's Manuel Ugarte, but the French club is demanding a hefty fee of £51m, which is deemed too high by United.

Another player that has been considered is Sander Berge from Burnley, with the team asking for around £30m for the Norwegian. However, in an attempt to find a more cost-effective solution, United has also been considering bringing back Sofyan Amrabat on another season-long loan deal. The Moroccan was previously with the team on a loan last summer and ended up making 30 appearances in all competitions.

While United ultimately decided not to sign Amrabat permanently, the team still had him listed on their website until recently. However, on Wednesday, it was noticed that his name had been removed, and his number four shirt was given to De Ligt. This suggests that United will not be re-signing the 27-year-old midfielder. Despite this, their interest in Ugarte remains, but the club is hoping that PSG will lower their asking price or agree to a loan deal for them to make the move happen.

United's first game of the Premier League season is against Fulham at Old Trafford on Friday night. In other news, former Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has apparently signed with a new team after his exit from Chelsea.
