Liverpool have acquired a creative midfielder in Mac Allister and are now looking for a playmaker to enhance their midfield.
The Reds attempted to sign Moroccan international Sofyan Amrabat during the January transfer window, but Fiorentina refused to trade their prized asset.

According to recent media rumors, Liverpool have made contact in order to finally sign the African defensive midfielder during the summer transfer window.
According to today’s edition of Sport (news image below), Amrabat is ready to quit the Viola and his first priority is to transfer to Barcelona.
However, according to the Catalan site, the Spanish champions deem the asking price of 30 million euros plus add-ons to be too expensive.
According to sources in Italy (La Gazzetta Dello Sport), Fiorentina seek a minimum sum of £35 million to unload the 26-year-old midfielder.
According to Sport, Liverpool is one of the few elite teams interested in signing Amrabat.
Last year, the former Eredivisie holding midfielder was one of the greatest players at the FIFA World Cup. Morocco advanced to the competition’s semi-finals thanks to his outstanding efforts.
In Qatar, Amrabat helped his country retain clean sheets against Croatia and Belgium in the group stages, as well as against Spain and Portugal in the knockout rounds.
Fabinho has been a valuable member of the Liverpool squad for many years, but he is beyond his peak and will turn 30 in October. We will need to replace the first-choice DM sooner rather than later, and we need depth at the position for the time being.
Do you believe Sofyan Amrabat is capable of improving the midfield? Should Liverpool make a £35 million bid for him?
