The 27-year-old came through Utrecht’s academy to play 50 times for the senior side during Ten Hag’s spell in charge between 2015 and 2017.
“I was 18, 19 years old and he gave me the chance to play in the first team with Utrecht.
“We had a fantastic time, a really good season. I learned a lot from him so maybe he’s one of the most important people in my career for now.“He’s hungry. He wants to win. He’s a winner and I like that. I think I’m also similar, I’m also a winner. I want to win every day so it’s a good match.” Amrabat, one of the best players of the winter World Cup in Qatar for Morocco, has been brought in to bolster United’s midfield.
United have paid an £8.6million loan fee but have an option to make the deal permanent for £17.1m plus £4.2m in add-ons. His brother, Nordin, previously played for Watford in the top flight and he is looking forward to following in the footsteps of some famous United midfielders.Signed on the dotted line 😁✍️
