Manchester United have taken a significant step forward in their pursuit of Paris Saint-Germain star Manuel Ugarte.
According to reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano, Man United have agreed personal terms with Ugarte who is ‘keen’ for an Old Trafford switch.
French defender Leny Yoro officially joined United a few hours ago. Ugarte has the same agent – Jorge Mendes.
Agreeing personal terms is a major step for United. The club-to-club negotiations with PSG remain ongoing.
The Premier League giants’ next priority is a new midfielder, who have already signed a new striker and a defender.
Casemiro had a terrible 2023/24 season. His dip in form has raised questions about United’s midfield options but Ugarte could be the answer to their woes.
Sofyan Amrabat had a tough start to his life in England but his performances towards the end of the season impressed many critics.
United have a buy-clause in Amrabat’s loan deal, but are yet to trigger it.
Ugarte would be a solid addition to the squad but it will be difficult to sign him without generating funds through selling players.
Mason Greenwood has left the club for £23.3 million. The potential departures of Casemiro or Scott McTominay could pave the way for United to sign Ugarte.
