Manchester United is in negotiations to recruit Manuel Ugarte, a midfielder for Paris Saint-Germain, on a loan with an obligation.
The Red Devils were reportedly interested in Ugarte back in June. The team has been searching for a midfield partner for Kobbie Mainoo this summer.
According to several reports, Ugarte has subsequently moved up the club’s priority list for this role, and last month, they reached a personal agreement with the player. According to reports, Ugarte is “pushing like crazy” to complete the deal, but United and PSG haven’t been able to come to an agreement on a price that works for all parties.
United believes that the French champions’ repeated demands for more over €60 million are ridiculous.
Thus, even if talks are still ongoing, there hasn’t been much of an agreement; nonetheless, Fabrizio Romano’s most recent report could encourage movement. “Manchester United are working on loan with obligation to buy proposal for Manuel Ugarte,” the Italian journalist claims.
“This formula will be used in the ongoing negotiations between Jorge Mendes and Paris Saint-Germain.”
Due to tight PSR regulations, United is limited in their spending, so this summer’s loan might be quite important. Additionally, avoiding having to pay over a sizable chunk of money above the loan charge would greatly facilitate a transaction.
Furthermore, Romano’s reference to his agent Mendes is significant since it has long been acknowledged that Mendes’s involvement in the transaction was crucial to its possible success.
Furthermore, PSG may feel sufficiently obligated to purchase the midfield player in the summer of next year to be certain of financial support, and United could even be prepared to pay a higher price if they know it won’t have an impact on their budget this year.
The fact that PSG is now open to discussing this alternative may indicate that the negotiations are going well and that both parties are now more motivated to reach an agreement before the window shuts in ten days.
