Although many Liverpool fans want to strengthen our options in midfield and not lose the quality we already have, some have suggested that if we sign Sofyan Amrabat it would be as a replacement for Fabinho.
Thanks to our exclusive interview with Foot Mercato’s Аnas Bakhkhar, Empire of the Kop got to know the 26-year-old and how he compares to the 29-year-old on our team:
“Even for Morocco in 2018, he acted as a substitute for Mbark Boussoufa, but in the years after, Sofyan Amrabat realized that he could have more physical impact than Boussoufa and so he became the midfield man.

“I think he can bring this more than Fabinho, this physical aspect to the duels on the ground or in the air and that could be an advantage for him over Fabinho.
“I think Fabinho is better than Amrabat at dribbling, when he gets the ball, Amrabat doesn’t really risk dribbling an opponent or trying to make the difference with a dribble, just with his pass, so maybe that’s what he’s doing. It may be the advantage for Fabinho.
“Amrabat’s playstyle is very simple but he’s really efficient and everything he does is for a reason, but it just works.”
It would be very short-sighted of our fans to ignore all that the Brazilian has done for the Reds and willingly be pushing him out the starting gate.
In the Moroccan midfielder we could have a new option for midfield and it’s hard to see why we would have to lose our number 3 to accommodate him.
Jurgen Klopp will want competition for places but also the ability to rotate when the match schedule piles up and with the former Monaco player our only No. 6 specialist having another body in that position will help competition and status. physical.
It seems this season has seen some players play too much while we wait for others to return from injury problems, so let’s hope that now the World Cup comes to a close – we can go ahead and attack the second part of the campaign. .
Whether we do this with the Fiorentina man in our team or not, time will tell.
