Manuel Ugarte’s absence from Paris Saint-Germain’s squad for their Ligue 1 opener against Le Havre has fueled speculation about his future. The 23-year-old midfielder, who joined PSG from Sporting Lisbon for approximately £51 million ($66 million), is reportedly close to a move to Manchester United.
Negotiations between the two clubs are ongoing, with United yet to meet PSG’s asking price, which is similar to the fee PSG paid for Ugarte. According to Fabrizio Romano, the transfer is still in play, but the deal’s progression hinges on United agreeing to the financial terms set by PSG.
