Manchester United are working to sign Manuel Ugarte before the deadline
Manchester United Negotiations are reportedly continuing with Paris Saint-Germain over a deal to sign Manuel Ugarte, according to the transfer expert Fabricius Romano.
The Red Devils have been looking to strengthen the midfield department towards the end of this window, having already bolstered the forward line and defence with the signings of Joshua Zirkzee, Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui earlier this summer.
It has been widely suggested that Ugarte is the top target, but United were struggling to reach an agreement with Les Parisiens to close the deal, with the French giants unwilling to let the midfielder leave for less than £51 million.
Thus, it was even reported that Erik the HagFulham were exploring cheaper options to strengthen the squad with Sander Berge emerging as a serious option but he is close to joining Fulham.
Now, writing about unknown, Roman has reported that Man Utd are continuing negotiations with PSG to sign Ugarte and that they are looking to sign the midfielder on an initial loan deal with the obligation to make the transfer permanent.

He said:
“I understand that Manchester United are working on a loan proposal with an obligation to buy for Manuel Ugarte. Negotiations will continue with this formula as Jorge Mendes is leading the talks with Paris Saint-Germain.”
Meanwhile, Ben Jacobs He has stated that PSG are willing to let Ugarte go on loan with obligation and the player has already reached a personal agreement with the Red Devils.
He wrote:
“PSG are willing to approve a fee-based loan for Manuel Ugarte to join Manchester United. Ugarte has made it clear that he wants MUFC and has already agreed personal terms. Discussions are positive but PSG are in no rush and are willing to let negotiations drag on into next week if necessary.”
Also, speaking for himself, YouTube ChannelRomano has claimed that Ugarte is “pushing like crazy” to move to Old Trafford and play under Ten Hag.
Having joined Les Parisiens from Sporting CP last summer, the Uruguayan has struggled to play his best at the Parc des Princes. However, he is only 23 years old and has plenty of time on his side to prosper in his career.
Ten Hag has proven his ability to develop young talents, with Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho being prime examples of this. Therefore, Ugarte can also benefit from this if he does end up signing for the club. Premier League champions in the coming days.
