Manchester United Target Pushing ‘Like Crazy’ to Leave PSG for Old Trafford, Romano Says

Manuel Ugarte and his agent are working overtime to ensure that the Uruguayan makes his move to Old Trafford before the summer transfer window closes. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano provided the latest on this file, which now has a sense of urgency.

Manchester United have been tracking Ugarte for several weeks, but ESPN’s Rob Dawson reports that the club aren’t willing to overspend on the 23-year-old midfielder.

However, The Athletic’s Laurie Whitwell also reported that agent Jorge Mendes is working on a deal that could see Ugarte join United from PSG, with a verbal offer possibly already in place.

Journalist Ben Jacobs adds that PSG expect Ugarte to depart this summer, with sporting advisor Luis Campos leading the negotiations for his potential exit. Ugarte is eager to join Manchester United, with their latest verbal offer reportedly reaching €45 million.

Romano reports that Ugarte is pushing “like crazy” to join Manchester United, with Mendes leading the negotiations. More talks are expected to take place in the coming days.

The summer transfer window has reached its final stages, and Manchester United will need to decide soon if they can work out an agreement with PSG or make a last-ditch effort for another target.
