Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) midfielder Manuel Ugarte, who was Lee Kang-in's colleague, is more likely to leave this summer.

British Give Me Sports reported on the 9th (Korea time) 'Manchester United is continuing negotiations to recruit PSG midfielder Ugarte'

Ugarte is one of the freshmen to join PSG this season. Along with Lee Kang-in and Bradley Barcola, they have been classified as the next key players to lead PSG's next generation. In particular, Lee Kang-in received great attention as his best friend who trained and ate together from the start of the season to the end of the season.



Ugarte's skills, verified by Sporting and the Uruguayan national team, were expected to have no problem adapting to PSG. Initially, Ugarte, who showed excellent defense, wide range of defense and a sense of defense at PSG, which left a gap in the defensive midfielder position due to Marco Verratti's departure, predicted that he would be a perfect replacement.

However, the wall of PSG's main player was higher than expected. Coach Luis Enrique, who guaranteed a spot in the midfield by giving new Ugarte many opportunities at the beginning of the season, reduced Ugarte's use after the middle of the season.



Rather, the proportion of using four players as key midfield players, including Fabian Lewis, Vitinha, Lee Kang-in and Warren Zairemeri, increased, and Ugarte only increased the number of replacements. In the end, Ugarte, which has performed below expectations since the end of the season, was thrown out after just one season and was listed as a target for sale.

The team that desperately wants Ugarte is Manchester United. Manchester United is reportedly planning to form a new midfield this summer by sending out Casemiro, Christian Eriksen and Scott McTominay. It seems that he is considering recruiting Ugarte and building a new third term with Kobe Mainu.

Give Me Sports is seeking to recruit Ugarte for Manchester United. Ugarte is interested in a move to Manchester United. Manchester United are also trying to bring Matthias Diricht and Joshua Girksey. PSG said they would not allow Ugarte to leave for less than 50 million pounds (about 88 billion won) and Manchester United's first offer was rejected.

Fabrizio Romano, an expert in the European soccer transfer market, also said 'Manchester United and PSG are in negotiations. The two clubs are talking. Ugarte is listed for sale. PSG want big money through Ugarte. The player is willing to go to the English Premier League (EPL) and wants a transfer. Even if I can't get out of the European Champions League, I'm thinking of going to Manchester United.

For Manchester United, it seems that they will have to complete the recruitment before other clubs show interest in Ugarte in order to strengthen the midfield. Attention is also focusing on whether Ugarte, who seemed to wear inappropriate clothes at PSG, can make a turnaround by moving to Manchester United.
