Man Utd handed new Ugarte transfer boost after PSG squad omission
Uruguayan midfielder will be absent as Paris Saint-Germain begin their latest Ligue 1 title defence away at Le Havre on Friday night
www.standard.co.ukHere’s the latest on Manuel Ugarte and PSG, based on recent reporting up to 2024.
- Manchester United have been strongly linked with Ugarte, with reports at times suggesting they were preparing a move as PSG’s asking price was a point of negotiation. This has been a recurring theme in multiple outlets over the summer transfer period.
- PSG signed Ugarte from Sporting Lisbon for a significant fee and he was viewed as part of their defensive-midfield reshaping under new coach Luis Enrique, though transfer chatter about a potential exit persisted during the window.
- There were occasions where Ugarte was not included in PSG’s matchday squad, fueling continued speculation about a transfer, though PSG publicly underscored their plans for him as part of their squad.
