PSG Open to Obligation Loan Deal in Talks with Man Utd for Star Midfielder | OneFootball

Manchester United are eyeing Manuel Ugarte to strengthen their midfield this summer and Paris Saint-Germain are open to other ways of getting a transfer done between the two sides.

Though it appears the negotiations are at a standstill, CaughtOffside recently reported that PSG might have reduced their asking price for the midfielder. According to their report, PSG have set a €59 million price tag for Ugarte, and the gap between this and Manchester United’s offer isn’t too significant.

Ugarte has already agreed to personal terms with the Red Devils, but the information from CaughtOffside notes that the midfielder wants the clubs to agree on the fee before deciding to join the Premier League giants.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano provided the latest on the Ugarte file and he reports that PSG are open to letting Ugarte go on loan with a mandatory purchase clause.

Ideally, they want a permanent transfer or a loan deal with an obligation to buy. Ugarte has already agreed to personal terms with Manchester United and is now waiting for the two clubs to finalize the agreement.

Manchester United are reportedly exploring other options and have shown interest in Sporting CP’s Danish midfielder Morten Hjulmand, who recently dazzled with a stunning goal against England at Euro 2024. This shift in focus comes as the club is hesitant to meet the asking price for Ugarte.
