Sharing is caring

English side Manchester United have agreed a deal worth £42.29m with Paris St-Germain for Uruguay midfielder Manuel Ugarte.

The deal also includes a potential £8.46m in additional payments.

Ugarte is expected to fly to Manchester for a medical later on Tuesday.

The move comes at the same time as midfielder Scott McTominay is leaving for Napoli in a move worth £25.37m

Ugarte has been linked with United throughout the summer and is now poised to sign for the Old Trafford club, just one year after joining PSG from Sporting Lisbon for a reported 60m euros.

The 23-year-old made 37 appearances for Luis Enrique’s side, including 25 in the league as PSG won their 12th Ligue 1 title.

The Ugarte deal is contingent on McTominay completing his switch to Napoli, although there is confidence at Old Trafford that transfer will be done.

Should the transfer go through as expected, Ugarte will become United’s fifth signing of the summer and take their overall spending to in excess of £190m.

United have spent nearly £600m on new players since Ten Hag was appointed in 2022.
