Alan Shearer has heaped praise on the 'absolutely magnificent' Sofyan Amrabat for his part in Morocco's World Cup success.
Amrabat has been an ever-present figure as the North African side became the first on the continent to reach the semi-finals, where they were knocked out by France this evening despite another spirited performance. The Fiorentina man has seemingly covered every blade of grass as he limited world-class opposition to just one goal in the five games preceding tonight.
Such form has inevitably attracted interest from the Premier League's top sides, with Liverpool reported to be alongside Tottenham Hotspur in exploring the possibility of a January move. Recent reports have even gone as far as to suggest that Jurgen Klopp has met with representatives of the 26-year-old as they discuss the suitability of a move to Anfield.
