The demarcation of the defensive midfielder is the priority signing at FC Barcelona 2023-24. It is a hierarchy that is very clear for Barça coach Xavi Hernández, who for some reason tried until the last moment to get Sergio Busquets to postpone his departure from the club for another season. The march of the historical referent of the culé wide zone activated an operation dependent on economic reality, even more than the taste of football. If it is for this, Martin Zubimendiof the Royal Society, Xavi will choose, which continues to insist on the possibility of bringing the 24-year-old midfielder from San Sebastián despite his desire to play in the Champions League as a blue and white player and a starting fee of 60 million euros. Naa list of alternatives continue together Marcelo Brozovic (Inter) and Guido Rodríguez (Betis), the moroccan international Sofyan Amrabat (Fiorentina). His coach Walid Regragui gave an important detail about Amrabat’s future in the hours before the match between Morocco and South Africa. “Amrabat will sign with a new club,” Regragui emphatically stated in a press conference to justify his lack of alignment in the international match.
The Fiorentina midfielder was allowed not to spoil his career prospects, which is at an important time. “Amrabat will not play. He has already played a lot this year, I preferred not to risk it, especially since he is about to sign with a new team”, argued the Moroccan coach.
In the last market, his possible arrival at Barça was considered, but since the negotiations did not progress, he ended up apologizing to the fans of the ‘viola’. In addition to Barça, Atlético de Madrid is a strong bidder, as well as several Premier League clubs.
Aged 26, Amrabat has played 107 games for Fiorentina, where he finished runners-up in the Conference League this season. MD has already reported that, in fact, Amrabat is part of the list of midfielders managed by Barça, although the other names mentioned above are ahead of him in the order of preferences. The end of the contract in 2024, Fiorentina assume that selling him this summer is the best option. His intention is to ask for between 25 and 30 million euros for his sale. They seem to be too many, even for strong clubs in the Premier League.
