With all the transfer rumors and stories, it should always come down to one simple question: ‘Will they sign for Liverpool, yes or no?’ and that is exactly what we asked in our interview about Sofyan Amrabat.
Our exclusive interview with Foot Mercato’s Аnas Bakhkhar meant that Empire of the Kop now has an answer to the question on everyone’s lips and it seems to be positive news:
“Can I say ‘I hope so!’ – I just hope so!

“Yes, there were very good and positive meetings between the parties and it can only be good if they are talking and the Liverpool sporting director is involved as well, for Amrabat and for Liverpool.
“Amrabat could be about to discover the high level that he can’t discover with Fiorentina in Serie A, but moving to the best league in Europe and playing in the Champions League would be a great opportunity.
“Although he doesn’t have the experience, maybe Fabinho will have the advantage over him in this side and he could be in the Champions League starting line-up, but you never know.
“A month ago nobody knew about Amrabat, but now every club in the Premier League, Serie A and Ligue 1 will know about him and want to sign him, he has had a huge impact and put in a lot of effort. Even with his mentality, which was taught by his older brother who was also international for Morocco for a long time.
“So yes, I think Amrabat can be a Liverpool player, a very good Liverpool player.”
Although there was no definitive ‘yes or no’ to the question, it is clear that the Moroccan journalist is positive about the talks that have taken place and the fact that more talks are already arranged.
Capturing the Fiorentina man would be a great moment for the player and his nation, but hopefully it’s just as important for us, should this deal come to fruition.
Whether the 26-year-old is competition for Fabinho or to be signed alongside him and bolster the options in our team, it may be worth bringing in another body to play the role of number 6.
If we’re going to lose Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and James Milner this summer, the signing of a standout player like Jude Bellingham or Enzo Fernandez may need to be joined by a more affordable option like Sofyan Amrabat.
Do you think we will sign the Moroccan in the next transfer windows?
