It isn't confirmed yet if he's back to the international squad.
More information about the deal itself: "Loan deal on €10m fee plus buy clause for June 2024 worth €20m plus €5m add-ons if Man United want Sofyan to stay on long term."

🚨 Manchester United have reached agreement with Fiorentina to sign Sofyan Amrabat. 27yo Morocco international midfielder will join #MUFC from #Fiorentina on a season-long loan with option to buy.
The goalkeeper becomes the first Turkish player to represent the Reds.
Amrabat on loan could be beneficial for us. Not only financially, but also performance wise. If he doesn't work out, we part ways.

Some interesting quotes from Max:
"I think I learned a lot from the race in Baku how to do some things with the car, how to set it up," Verstappen told reporters at Zandvoort.
"Of course I didn't win that race in Baku but I actually really tried a lot of stuff and different tools in the car and that's why throughout the race it was a little bit inconsistent but at one point I got into a good rhythm with what I found.
"Then I damaged my tyres a bit too much but I was like 'OK, that's quite interesting for the next races' and I basically implemented that and it has helped me on every track," added Verstappen.
Red Bull's runaway Formula One leader Max Verstappen credited a rare defeat for setting in motion a record-equalling run of nine wins in a row.
United have been offered chance to talk to Denmark midfielder with Erik ten Hag keen to strengthen his engine room
Manchester United are considering a surprise move for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
United have been offered the chance to open talks over Hojbjerg, who Tottenham are willing to sell before Friday’s transfer deadline.
Atletico Madrid had a bid of £30million accepted earlier in the summer for the 28-year-old but the move collapsed after a failure to agree personal terms.
The Danish international recently also turned down the chance to join the Saudi Pro-League despite being offered a highly lucrative salary package of £45million net of tax over the term of his contract.
Hojbjerg joined Spurs on a five-year deal for £15million from Southampton in 2020, when he became Jose Mourinho’s first summer signing, and has been a key senior player up until this season.
He has made two substitute appearances so far in the Premier League under new head coach Ange Postecoglou, who has preferred a pairing of Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr.
It remains to be seen whether United progress talks although their manager Erik ten Hag has been urging them to sign another central midfielder.
However, it also appears that United need to raise funds through sales. Sources close to Bayern Munich have played down suggestions that head coach Thomas Tuchel is keen to sign Scott McTominay who can leave United if an appropriate fee is offered. United have quoted £45million to interested clubs for the Scot but will have to accept less.
Instead, Tuchel’s priority is to sign Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah on a permanent deal, rather than a loan, with negotiations progressing for the 24-year-old.
Talks have taken place at United to sign Fiorentina’s Sofyan Amrabat, who has appeared their top target, but an offer has not been made, as of yet, which suggests money needs to be brought into Old Trafford first.
Indeed, Amrabat’s representatives have grown frustrated at the lack of progress and are considering their options. Fiorentina appear to have taken the decision not to play the 27-year-old Moroccan international until the transfer window has closed.
Atletico have also shown interest in Amrabat but he has made it clear he prefers a move to the Premier League.
United have struggled in midfield since the start of the campaign and have also suffered a blow with new signing Mason Mount ruled out injured for three-to-five more weeks after damaging his hamstring.
United’s plans have also been complicated by an injury to Luke Shaw which has led them to look for an emergency left-back. Marc Cucurella, Marcos Alonso and Sergio Reguilon are on their target list.
Club's owner Evangelos Marinakis fuming over the display of Stuart Attwell, ordering officials to submit complaint to referee body PGMOL
Furious Nottingham Forest submit complaint over refereeing in Manchester United defeat
Club's owner Evangelos Marinakis fuming over the display of Stuart Attwell, ordering officials to submit complaint to referee body PGMOL.
Nottingham Forest have submitted an official complaint to referees’ body PGMOL after expressing their “anger” at the performance of Stuart Attwell and his officials in Saturday’s defeat by Manchester United.
Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis and head coach Steve Cooper are still furious in the aftermath of the club’s controversial 3-2 loss at Old Trafford.
Marinakis has instructed Forest officials to take their concerns to PGMOL chief Howard Webb after a number of poor decisions went against his team, with the Greek businessman now ready to take action over what he perceives are consistently poor standards.
Joe Worrall was sent off for a challenge on United captain Bruno Fernandes in the second half outside the area and Attwell had the decision backed by Var as the Forest skipper was adjudged to be the last man, although Willy Boly appeared to be a covering defender which could have reduced the sanction.
Marcus Rashford was then brought down by Forest midfielder Danilo while United substitute Scott McTominay was given just a yellow card for a kick towards the face of Cheikhou Kouyate.
Forest’s concerns over the performance of Attwell are understood to stem from the official’s display in a Championship game against Bournemouth back in the 2021/22 season when a penalty decision went against former forward Sam Surridge after an incorrect offside decision went against him.
Saturday’s game at Old Trafford was Attwell’s first Forest game since that match in May 2022.
It is also the second successive game at Old Trafford where an opposition manager has been frustrated over refereeing decisions, after Wolves striker Sasa Kaladjzic appeared to be fouled by United goalkeeper Andre Onana and no penalty was awarded, leaving Gary O’Neil baffled.
Marinakis was still fuming on Monday morning and the club have outlined their anger in an email sent to the PGMOL.
Fred confirms Altay Bayindir’s move to Man United: “I wished Altay good luck when he left. He is going to join a great team”. 🔴🇹🇷 #MUFC
“Altay will be very happy at Manchester United”, he added.
🩺 Bayindir spent last three days in Manchester to complete medical tests.
Fingers crossed that means Amrabat incoming.
Definitely, I think it's happening now. It has to.
Also liking the sell on clauses they are adding to deals makes a lot of sense and is nice little bonus down the line.
Hopefully we can capitalise on those sell-on clauses in two years.
I know, but as you can see it's still raining two hours before the race. It's 16 degrees and cloudy, which means the racestart is still wet.
Buienradar, I find this service more reliable, as I live in the Netherlands. However weeronline.nl and buienalarm.nl are reporting more or less the same. There are even services who are reporting thunderstorm warnings around racestart
With this fee the club can finally realise Amrabat to Manchester United
Dean Henderson to Crystal Palace, here we go! Agreement in place and medical to be completed today — permanent move from Man Utd 🔵🔴🏴 #CPFC
United to receive £20m package, add ons included. Sell on clause will be also part of the deal.
🇹🇷 Bayindir to Man Utd, soon.
Definitely, good deal for all parties I'd reckon.
EXCL: Manchester United made contact with Chelsea to ask about conditions of Marc Cucurella deal on potential loan — no bid or concrete talks yet 🚨🔴🇪🇸
United looking for LB opportunity but not too expensive — there are three candidates in the list. No decision made yet.
Nottingham Forest considering official complaint to PGMOL over performance of referee Stuart Attwell & assistants after Man Utd defeat. Forest “very angry” after number of decisions today and feel standards are worsening #nffc
Understand Turkisk GK Altay Bayindir is already in England ahead of move to Manchester United 🚨🔴🇹🇷 #MUFC
€7m package deal agreed with Fener, just waiting to complete final steps as Dean Henderson will join Palace.
Hopefully not, it better be Lindelöf.
Dean Henderson set for medical at Crystal Palace tomorrow morning, travelling down once clear of Old Trafford.
Loan with obligation + permanent have both been discussed. Either way, gives #MUFC money to bring in Altay Bayindir from Fenerbache.
I hope Albon is able to convert it into a good qualifying.
I imagine Dalot at LB for the time being. Maybe Alvaro Fernandez is a shout to keep on, instead of loaning him. Lastly we have Martinez who can play LB, maybe Martinez at LB creates a situation where we can effectively play 3-2-5 in possession.

Fiorentina, Manchester United insists for Amrabat
Amrabat may leave Fiorentina this soccer session: the Moroccan midfielder has been a target of Ten Hag's Manchester United for some time. The Red Devils continue to push to get to the close of the deal for the former Hellas Verona man soon.
Amrabat's numbers.
In the evening Fiorentina came very close to Aster Vranckx, a former AC Milan midfielder (details here). But the arrival of the Belgian is not linked to the future of Sofyan Amrabat: United insists, but at the moment there is no agreement between clubs. Last season the Moroccan collected 29 appearances in Serie A and 12 in the Conference League.
I'm feeling bad for Ricciardo. Not what he needed in his return to the paddock. However excited to see what Lawson can achieve this weekend.
Interesting bits:
- A four-week lay-off would rule the England midfielder - a £55 million summer signing from Chelsea - out until September 19. That could see him miss the visit of Brighton in United’s first game after the internationals and potentially the club’s first Champions League group game, as well as Saturday’s game against Nottingham Forest and the trip to Arsenal eight days later.
- Ten Hag is hoping to sign another midfielder before the close of the transfer window on Friday week, with Fiorentina’s Sofyan Amrabat of interest while United have also been linked with Bayern Munich’s Ryan Gravenberch. But Mount’s injury could complicate any plans to sell McTominay, who has been out of favour under Ten Hag and facing an uncertain future.
If Henderson leaves for £15-20M, that would leave £10-15M for other signings. Not a bad deal then.
It would take me some time to properly say his name 😆
