Manchester United Make Multiple Verbal Offers for PSG Midfielder Amid £59M Valuation | OneFootball

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano recently reported that Manchester United and Manuel Ugarte have agreed on personal terms, taking the first steps toward his move to Old Trafford.

Romano shared that all the contract details are set, and the player is excited to join Manchester United, even though the team isn’t in the UEFA Champions League.

The two teams still need to negotiate the transfer fee, but Paris Saint-Germain is standing firm on its asking price for Ugarte. According to L’Equipe, the reigning Ligue 1 champions want €70 million.

New information comes from Sky Sport Germany’s Florian Plettenberg, who reports that Manchester United have made several verbal offers for Ugarte. However, they’ve all been too low. PSG is still holding out for at least £59 million, so the negotiations are still ongoing.

While the two clubs attempt to reach a transfer fee agreement, WhoScored.com spotlighted a stat that should catch the Red Devils’ attention. The statistical outlet notes that Ugarte made tackles more often than any other player in Ligue 1 last season, averaging one every 19.7 minutes.
