Man Utd get their man! Major update in Manuel Ugarte's protracted transfer from PSG

An update credited to major Uruguayan newspaper El Pais, via Sport Witness, suggests it is only a matter of "hours" before Ugarte completes his transfer to Manchester United. Seemingly "everything is on track" for the midfielder to move to Old Trafford from PSG, with only "minor details" that are not expected to pose any late problems left to be ironed out.

More than a month after Ugarte was first reported to have agreed personal terms with United, things have been edging closer to a resolution after the clubs were initially too far apart when it came to negotiating a transfer fee. Erik ten Hag didn't given any details away when he was asked about any outstanding deals in the wake of the weekend's defeat at Brighton, although he did state that United are "always" generally looking to upgrade the squad.

Per FBREF, Ugarte led Ligue 1 in total tackles (98) last season, winning 57 of them. That's despite only making 25 appearances in the competition during the campaign. His passing accuracy across those games also came in at just over 91%.

Ugarte looks as though he will be the final new arrival at Old Trafford this summer, with only four days of the transfer window remaining. Scott McTominay could yet leave, with a reported fee agreed with Napoli for the Scotland interational.
