Man United have prioritised signing a midfielder this summer, and talks are reportedly underway with Paris Saint-Germain about the availability of Manuel Ugarte
Manchester United may be the best-positioned club to sign Manuel Ugarte this summer despite past interest from their Premier League counterparts.
Liverpool were also linked, as the player's Uruguayan agent Jorge Chijane acknowledged 12 months ago. But Alexis MacAllister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Ryan Gravenberch and Wataru Endo have all arrived at Anfield since then. Ugarte is currently in the United States as part of the Uruguay squad for the Copa America. So too is Facundo Pellistri, who, despite a lack of game time at United, starts alongside the PSG player for the national team.
Ugarte would become the fifth Uruguayan to play for the club, two decades after the first, Diego Forlan, left. United's interim chief executive, Jean-Claude Blanc, could play a role in any move over the coming weeks before stepping down once Omar Berrada arrives on 13 July.
