Manchester United agree terms with Paris Saint-Germain to sign Manuel Ugarte for £50.7m

Manchester United have agreed terms with Paris Saint-Germain to sign Urguguayian midfielder, Manuel Ugarte.  United will pay an initial of 42.2m but the deal could be worth as much as 50.7m (60m) including performance-related add-ons.  Ugarte who was the club’s primary midfield target throughout the window, is expected in the UK on Tuesday, August 27,  to have a medical and sign off on personal terms.  PSG went into negotiations wanting the 51.1m (60m) fee they paid Sporting Lisbon last summer before bonuses. United are understood to be happy with the deal that they have struck.  The Uruguayan will join United just a year after PSG paid Sporting Lisbon 51.1m for the player.  Ugarte was not involved in PSG’s match-day squad for their Ligue 1 opener against Le Havre, which ended in a 4-1 win for the reigning champions.  The midfielder led the top flight of French football in tackles last season (98), despite only starting 21 games across the 2023/24 campaign. The post Manchester United agree terms with Paris Saint-Germain to sign Manuel Ugarte for 50.7m appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
