According to Fabrizio Romano, Amrabat has already completed the first part of his medical and is now heading to Manchester to finish the deal.
The star was spotted leaving Florence in order to catch his flight in time to seal the transfer before the deadline.
Amrabat has been a target for Erik ten Hag all summer long and it looks like the United boss will finally have his man.
According to reports the deal could be made permanent in the summer of 2024.
It is said that United have a buy option inserted into the deal for a fee of around £22million.
The Manchester giants are having a busy deadline day with Spurs defender Sergio Reguilon also joining on loan.
Ten Hag has been keen for defensive reinforcements after losing Luke Shaw to a nasty muscular injury.
And it looks as though he could have another option at the back with Jonny Evans set to sign a one-year deal at Old Trafford too.
