United will pay a loan fee of £8.6 million (10 million euros), with the option to make the deal permanent for £17.1 million (20 million euros) plus £4.2 million (5 million euros) in add-ons.

United had previously signed fullback Sergio Reguilon, , centre back Jonny Evans, and keeper Altay Bayindir.

Amrabat, 27, described himself as “representing the club of my dreams.”

He played with La Viola for three seasons, appearing in 92 league games and scoring once.

Fiorentina left Amrabat out of their team for both legs of their Europa Conference League play-off against Rapid Vienna, which they won 2-1 on aggregate on Thursday.

“I’ve had to be patient for this moment, but I’m someone who always listens to my heart,” he explained.
