PSG star is keen on Manchester United; French giants expect interest to intensify

Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte is attracting lots of interest this summer. Manchester United are one of the many elite clubs in Europe monitoring the Uruguayan’s impressive performances at Copa America.

Fabrizio Romano has been speaking to CaughtOffside for his latest Daily Briefing column. He explains that Ugarte is keen on a transfer to United, but other clubs could get involved.

The reporter report adds that United’s talks over Ugarte are ongoing but with nothing advanced or close.

Ugarte is also said to be keen on a transfer to United, but PSG think other teams could get involved in the race for Ugarte’s signature. The best-case scenario would be a bidding war, as far as the Ligue 1 giants are concerned.

“In midfield, talks are ongoing for Manuel Ugarte,” Romano said. “Manchester United are keen on the Uruguay international, and he’s keen on the move as well.

“It depends on the clubs as Man United and PSG are in contact but not close to getting the deal done yet. Negotiations are needed, and it could take some days as PSG insist on there being other clubs also showing a concrete interest in Ugarte.”
