Odegaard embarrasses Amrabat
On-loan midfielder Sofyan Amrabat was handed a rare start by Erik ten Hag due to injuries, with Casemiro starting a second straight game in the heart of defence.
As seen in footage circulating on social media, during the 54th minute, the Moroccan midfielder made a move on the Arsenal captain, who evaded him with a sharp turn, sending him tumbling.
The Red Devils signed him on a season-long loan from Fiorentina in the summer after weeks of prolonged negotiations. However, United were unable to pay the £30 million asking price due to financial fair play regulations.
A few weeks into a £9mil loan move, it became apparent that it was a wrong move. United decided that the loan would not be made permanent for £21mil and that he would return to Florence.
Per Football Italia, the Serie A club has no intention of keeping him, and a conversation will be held over his future as the club aims to move him on this summer.
