It seems like Gary Neville would be in favour of Manchester United making a move for Sofyan Amrabat after being impressed by the midfielder's World Cup exploits.
United have had a positive summer transfer window so far by improving two troubled positions with the signing of Mason Mount and the arrival of Andre Onana, but there is more work to be done.
A striker is now the main focus as Erik ten Hag desperately wants to add a natural No.9 to his ranks to improve his side's goal output. United only managed to score 58 league goals last season, the third-lowest of the teams that finished in the top 10.
Harry Kane remains the ideal target and could now be feasible after Daniel Levy was instructed to sell the England captain rather than let him leave for free next year, but Rasmus Hojlund and Randal Kolo Muani are alternatives. When or if United get their new frontman, there may also be room to add another midfielder to the squad.

The futures of Scott McTominay, Fred and Donny van de Beek all remain uncertain due to their, at best, inconsistent performances last season. Any and all of them could be sold if the right offer comes in, which could see United move to replenish their ranks in the middle.
A possible signing could be Fiorentina's Amrabat, who has long been linked with a move to Old Trafford and appears to be free to leave the Serie A side for around £30million. The classy and combative midfielder enjoyed an excellent World Cup as the driving force behind Morroco's remarkable run to the semi-finals.
