"It's a huge honour to become a Man Utd player"

Manchester United signed Sofyan Amrabat on loan as part of a hat-trick of arrivals at Old Trafford in the hectic final hours before Friday's transfer deadline. 

The Red Devils left it late to get a deal done for midfielder Amrabat that will see one of the stars of Morocco's run to the World Cup semi-finals join from Fiorentina for a 10 million euro loan fee with the option to buy for a further 25 million euros next year.

Amrabat was joined by Turkish goalkeeper Altay Bayindir from Fenerbahce and Spanish left-back Sergio Reguilon, who was with Spurs, in joining the Red Devils on deadline day.

"I've had to be patient for this moment but I'm someone who always listens to my heart and now I am representing the club of my dreams," said Amrabat in a United statement.

"It is a huge honour to become a Manchester United player. I am a passionate player. I want to bring that energy to the squad, and I will put everything into every action I take for the team. I know exactly how Erik ten Hag likes to work and what he needs from his players," he added.

"His coaching and guidance developed me so much as a player earlier in my career. I know that he will help to bring out the best of my abilities so that I can help the group to be successful this season."
