Roy Keane has praised reported Liverpool target and Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat on ITV (7:02pm, December 18, 2022), and has said that the Morocco international was “outstanding” at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

The former Manchester United star has been hugely impressed by Amrabat, linked with a move to Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool in the January transfer window.

Morocco reached the semi-finals of the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
