Manchester United agree terms with PSG to sign Manuel Ugarte for £50.7m

Manchester United have agreed terms with Paris Saint-Germain to sign Urguguayian midfielder, Manuel Ugarte.

Ravenewsonline reports that 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.
