Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has opened up and claimed that PSG star Manuel Ugarte is keen to join Manchester United now, but the Red Devils cannot agree a fee with the French giants.

Ugarte, 23, joined the French club from Sporting last summer after spending the previous two-and-a-half seasons in Portugal. He moved to Europe from South America as a teenager, months after debuting for the senior Uruguay side

While he was a first-team regular during the first-half of the season under Luis Enrique, he lost his place in the side in the second-half of the season.

PSG are eager to recoup the £51m they spent on the 23-year-old with Fabrizio Romano recently reporting that a number of clubs are very much interested in trying to get a bargain transfer deal done this summer.

It has been claimed that The Uruguay midfielder agreed personal terms with the Red Devils last month, and United remain in negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain over a fee, with a loan including an obligation to buy a possibility.

Speaking on his YouTube Channel Romano said: “Ugarte wants to join now. Ugarte is pushing to make his move to Manchester United. Now it’s on Man Utd and PSG, with a contract conversation with constant contact ongoing,”

“Manchester United’s top target is Manuel Ugarte. He wants to go to Man Utd, he’s insisting on going to Man Utd. He has an agreement on a contract with Man Utd already one month ago. The contract is ready. The salary is ready.”

Manchester United reportedly believe that Ugarte would add to the side – so this potential deal is taking alot longer than what the club needs.

But despite the reports that he has been offered to many clubs – it looks like the player would like to make the move to Manchester and join United – they are seemingly leading the chase for the player.

But anything can happen in football and if the the right club offers a bigger amount of money – then United will miss out. So if they really wants the midfielder – then they need to hurry up and try to get a transfer deal done, rather than waiting around.
