Liverpool and Barcelona-target Sofyan Amrabat’s asking price
Fiorentina have slapped a €60 million asking price on midfielder Sofyan Amrabat following his brilliant World Cup, according to Fichajes.
The 26-year-old produced a series of dominant performances in the centre of midfield as Morocco knocked out Belgium from the group stages, and then Spain in the last-16 and Portugal in the quarter-finals.
Morocco were finally beaten in the semis by France, before losing the third and fourth place playoff to Croatia on Saturday.
Amrabat’s displays have led to a whole host of Europe’s biggest clubs making moves for the Fiorentina star.
Liverpool, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and PSG are all understood to be interested in signing Amrabat in 2023.

The deal eventually fell through at the final minute when Fiorentina decided to keep Amrabat.
How much will Amrabat cost?
Fichajes reports that Amrabat’s asking price has soared due to his World Cup performances and his now valued at €60m.
Amrabat’s contract at Fiorentina expires in the summer of 2024 but there are reports that the Viola may have an option to extend his deal.
