Reports say that Manchester United is hopeful that they can finish the signing of Manuel Ugarte.
An inside tip from GMS says that Manchester United is ready to make history by signing Ugarte from Paris Saint-Germain.
The news source says the deal is almost done, and the Old Trafford team is hoping to hear good news today to complete the move.
French winners have been after the South American playmaker and want a £51 million loan deal with an obligation payment, according to GMS.
Manchester United, on the other hand, wants to change the terms and value Ugarte at around £42 million. The deal is likely to be finished soon.
Even though they spent more than £100 million this summer to improve their defence, Erik ten Hag’s players were not organised when they lost to Brighton over the weekend.
The Seagulls scored the winning goal late in extra time, and two players at the far end were not even marked. That’s all we can do to defend ourselves.
Not as good at reading the game and breaking it down as he was when he was at the top of his game for Real Madrid.
So, the addition of young destroyer Manuel Ugarte should help Manchester United in the defending third.
Ten Hag needs to put United under a lot of stress to finish this deal quickly because Liverpool is coming up next in the Premier League.
