Dutch Eredivisie club FC Utrecht has officially signed 39-year-old veteran forward Nordin Amrabat on a free transfer. The move takes immediate effect, making him eligible for upcoming matches after spending the last two weeks training with Anthony Correia’s squad.
Amrabat joins the club following his departure from Moroccan side Wydad AC. The transfer was heavily influenced by his brother, former FC Utrecht midfielder Sofyan Amrabat, who initiated contact with technical director Jordy Zuidam to discuss the opportunity.
FC Utrecht management expressed strong enthusiasm for the signing, highlighting a distinguished career path that includes stints at PSV Eindhoven, Galatasaray, Málaga, and Watford.
The veteran forward shared his pride in joining the team and wearing the club badge, describing the move as the “cherry on the cake” of his career. He noted his family’s deep connection to the club through his brother’s time in the youth academy, adding that they are thrilled to return to the stands at Stadion Galgenwaard.
Amrabat will now look to make an immediate impact for a struggling FC Utrecht side currently sitting 17th in the Eredivisie standings.
