With the 2023-24 Ligue 1 season over, the future of Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte is in the spotlight. The Uruguayan kicked off his first season with the capital club on a high note, leaving a solid impression early on.
As the season went on, he found himself playing less and less, often only coming on as a substitute or being part of the rotation. The Uruguayan is now linked to AC Milan and Juventus, with the Serie A clubs interested in signing him to give him more playing time.
Nonetheless, another Italian side is keen on the 23-year-old this summer, as Corriere Dello Sport reports that Napoli have an interest in Ugarte. Still, these suitors face a major hurdle in securing the player as his desire is to continue at PSG.
The Parisians were in the same situation last year with Vitinha and their patience paid off this season after a rollercoaster Year 1 in the French capital. Ugarte also recently commented on his future, noting his desire to stay in Paris.
“We’ll see,” Ugarte told Amazon Prime. “I would love to [stay at PSG]. We’ll have to see. For now, I’m here and enjoying the end of the season.”
