Sofyan Amrabat, the Moroccan midfielder, has fallen short of expectations since joining Manchester United.
The club has faced numerous challenges throughout the season, experiencing inconsistent performances.
Amrabat, who has a deep affection for Man Utd, eagerly awaited his loan move to Old Trafford in the summer of 2023.
However, despite his strong spirit, Amrabat’s on-field performance has been less than impressive.
His slow pace and positional awareness have proved problematic, leading to several costly mistakes for Manchester United.
It is evident that Amrabat is giving his best effort, compensating for his own limitations.
Amrabat has been likened to Wout Weghorst by fans, drawing parallels between the two players. Nevertheless, when representing his national team, Amrabat exhibited a different level of performance.
In the opening match of the CAN Cup (African Cup of Nations) against Tanzania, he showcased quality play, completing 60 passes with 95% accuracy at Stade de San Pedro. On loan from Fiorentina, Amrabat achieved a 100% success rate in long balls (6/6), won 5 duels, and made 3 tackles.
Despite this stellar performance on the international stage, Amrabat has not replicated the same level of excellence at Manchester United. With the imminent return of Casemiro, Amrabat may find himself on the bench again. Additionally, there are reports that Man Utd is not looking to make his loan move permanent.
For Amrabat to secure a lasting place in the squad, he needs to replicate his national team form while playing for the Red Devils
