Man Utd's Amrabat unavailable for Morocco due to injury

Bad news for Morocco. Sofyan Amrabat, who was signed by Manchester United on deadline day of the summer transfer window, has had to withdraw from the national team due to injury, the English club announced on Friday. 

The 27-year-old will not take part in the September international games against Liberia and Agadir. The Atlas Lions will be looking for a ticket to the Africa Cup of Nations final in those matches.

Morocco manager Walid Regragui has called up Yahya Jabrane to replace the midfielder. This is a huge setback for Morocco as Amrabat played a key role in the squad.

The Moroccan footballer was due to make his 50th appearance for his national team but will have to wait until he recovers before he can achieve his goal.
