Sofyan Amrabat’s agent revealed that the Manchester United’s new signing turned down every club offer to fulfill his dream of playing for the Red Devils.
The Moroccan midfielder joined United on deadline day on a loan deal worth €10 million (£8.6m/$10.9m) with an option to make his move permanent next summer for €25m (£21m/$27m).
Other giant clubs had come for Amrabat, some with even better contract offers, but he refused to heed to any till his United move was complete.
Mahmoud el Boustati, his agent, wrote on Instagram: “You had a dream that saw you playing under the lights in The Theatre of Dreams.
“You put your trust in me to make that dream a reality, and for 15 years we have been on this journey together that has seen you grow from a young boy with raw talent and a passion for football, to the man you are today, a world-class player.
“After your performances at the World Cup, the biggest stage of all, the whole world was speaking your name. They all saw what I always knew, your talent was undeniable.
“My belief in you has never changed and even though these last three months were difficult, with so many obstacles, you turned down every club that came calling because you had faith that your dream would come true.
“One club. We made it brother, a promise kept, a dream realised. The Theatre of Dreams awaits.”
