Manchester United is poised to make a significant splash in the summer transfer market, with the potential signing of Manuel Ugarte from Paris Saint-Germain. According to renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Red Devils are on the cusp of securing their fifth signing of the window, following the arrivals of Joshua Zirkzee, Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt, and Noussair Mazraoui.
Ugarte, a 23-year-old Uruguayan midfielder, has been identified as a top target for United, and Romano reports that the club is “set to close” the deal. The transfer is expected to be a permanent one, with Scott McTominay heading to Napoli in a £25 million deal. McTominay’s departure could pave the way for Ugarte’s arrival, with the Uruguayan star eager to join United and having already agreed to personal terms.
PSG has set an asking price of £51 million for Ugarte, which United appears willing to meet. The South American midfielder boasts an impressive skillset, combining tackling, recoveries, and duel-winning ability with exceptional ball control and possession retention. Ugarte’s arrival would address United’s need for a dominant midfielder, an area where they currently lag behind their rivals.
With Casemiro’s performances having been inconsistent over the past year, Ugarte’s signing would provide a welcome injection of youth and energy into the midfield. At just 23, Ugarte has the potential to form a long-term partnership with Kobbie Mainoo, and his all-round attributes make him an exciting prospect for United fans.
As the deal nears completion, United supporters are eagerly anticipating the arrival of Ugarte, who could become a key player in the team’s midfield for years to come. With his talent, work rate, and desire to join the club, Ugarte has the potential to be an outstanding addition to the Red Devils’ squad.
