The 26-year-old consequently stayed with La Viola, whom he joined from Hellas Verona in January 2020. Despite this, it is anticipated that he will be on the move at the season’s conclusion. Amrabat is still a player that many teams are interested in, including Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur. In the winter, the team under Jurgen Klopp is said to have even met the player’s entourage.
According to the aforementioned source, the Moroccan is, however, unimpressed by the prospect of joining the Premier League. He is more inclined to join Barcelona and La Liga.
