Ugarte's Premier League dream, PSG departure imminent

Just one year after he arrived at PSG, Manuel Ugarte is expected to leave the club before the end of the transfer window. He has only one destination in mind: Manchester United.

Signed for 60 million euros by PSG last summer, Manuel Ugarte has not delivered on the field in line with the investment made by the Parisian management. After a very promising start, he quickly lost his place as a starter to Fabian Ruiz, eventually being left out of the key matches for the Red & Blue during the second half of the season.

Despite being under contract with PSG until June 2028, Ugarte is not part of Luis Enrique's plans for the current campaign. As a result, he has been encouraged to find a new club to continue his career.

Ugarte's Premier League dream, PSG departure imminent

While several clubs have shown interest, the PSG No. 4 has had a clear idea of where he wants to go next: Manchester United. The 23-year-old Uruguayan international reached an agreement on his future contract with the Red Devils several weeks ago and is now waiting for PSG and Manchester United to finalize a deal so he can move to England.

Fabrizio Romano reports that Manuel Ugarte is solely focused on Manchester United and is awaiting the green light to move to Old Trafford. Although there have been rumors about Manchester United's interest in Ederson from Atalanta Bergamo, there have been no offers from the Manchester club.

The management is solely focused on finalizing an agreement with PSG for Ugarte. Two potential solutions are emerging in this deal: a direct transfer for around 60 million euros or a loan with a mandatory purchase option set at 60 million euros.

Fabrizio Romano has provided additional information regarding Manuel Ugarte's future. According to the transfer market specialist, Manchester United is close to completing the transfer of the Uruguayan international, which is likely to be a permanent deal for 60 million euros.

With Scott McTominay's imminent departure to Napoli, the Red Devils will proceed with the acquisition of PSG’s No. 4, as the Parisian club had wished. Ugarte, for his part, is eager to join the Premier League club and is ready to make the move.
