SOFYAN AMRABAT arrived at Manchester United with a recurring back injury which had hampered his World Cup. <\/p>\n
The midfielder joined Old Trafford from Fiorentina\u00a0on a deadline-day loan deal. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But according to The Athletic, United detected a minor back injury in Amrabat's medical. <\/p>\n
The Moroccan had revealed he received pain-killing injections just to play in the round of 16 against Spain.<\/p>\n
Following a knock to Mason Mount which sidelined the summer signing, United were forced into the market for a new midfielder. <\/p>\n
But talks to sign Amrabat were not plane sailing. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is claimed Fiorentina wanted a total package worth near \u00a330million \u2014 an \u00a38.5m loan fee, \u00a317.1m after 15 appearances plus \u00a34.2m in add-ons.<\/p>\n
United only offered \u00a32.5m for the loan, which was rejected and left the Serie A club short of patience. <\/p>\n
The club's director of football negotiations Matt Hargreaves was left to resurrect the deal after being told it was off. <\/p>\n
Amrabat, 27, was hellbent on a move to Manchester and even switched to the same agency as manager Erik ten Hag to get it done. <\/p>\n
