Manchester United are now looking to make their third signing of the summer transfer window.
The Red Devils have already signed striker Joshua Zirkzee and defender Leny Yoro, with the Premier League giants now expected to shift their focus in bringing a midfielder to Old Trafford.
Casemiro, Scott McTominay and Christian Eriksen all face an uncertain future at the club which makes it crucial for Erik ten Hag to bring in a new midfielder.
Man United also decided against the option to sign Sofyan Amrabat permanently from Fiorentina.
However, according to Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport, Man United could make a move to sign Amrabat again this summer but in a loan move, just like they did last summer.
The 27-year-old featured in 21 Premier League matches for the Red Devils last season.
He failed to cement a regular place in the starting line up but showed flashes of his brilliance towards the end of the season and helped the club win the FA Cup against Manchester City.
At the end of last season, Man United had the option to sign Amrabat in a permanent move for £17 million but they decided against triggering that option.
Sofyan Amrabat is being targeted by Man United for another loan move.
