The Red Devils have been actively pursuing Uruguayan international Manuel Ugarte throughout the summer and are now making notable progress toward finalizing his transfer. Negotiations between the two clubs have advanced, with a broad agreement on key aspects of the deal reportedly imminent, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Although there were previous disagreements over Ugarte’s valuation, both sides have reconciled their differences, bringing the transfer closer to completion. United’s preferred transfer structure involves an initial loan with an obligation to buy, a proposal that PSG has reportedly accepted. Meanwhile, Ugarte has expressed his desire to join United and is expected to agree to personal terms without major hurdles.
Recent Italian reports suggested that United might be considering a different option, Atalanta’s Brazilian midfielder Ederson Silva, with a €50 million (£42m/$56m) bid purportedly on the table. However, Romano has dismissed these rumors as unfounded.
In addition, Sky Sports has reported that United have begun discussions with Fiorentina regarding a potential move for Sofyan Amrabat, a more affordable option compared to Ugarte. United is also keeping an eye on Frenkie de Jong at Barcelona and may rekindle their interest if circumstances allow, given Barcelona’s financial difficulties.
As Ugarte remains sidelined from PSG’s first-team activities—missing their Ligue 1 season opener against Le Havre and potentially the upcoming match against Montpellier—he will be hoping for a swift resolution to the transfer so he can embark on his new journey in the English Premier League.
