Boss Amorim makes transfer admission on £65M star after Chelsea have five-year contract accepted
There is no shortage of interest in Sporting midfielder and CHELSEA target Manuel Ugarte and his manager, Ruben Amorim has claimed
The season is pretty much done for Chelsea and Frank Lampard – there is one game to go before the club can put a miserable campaign behind them.
There has been no silverware – there will not be any European football for next season – there has been a number of manager changes and Chelsea may even finish in the bottom half of the table.
Now the club can focus on adding to their squad in the summer transfer window and signing players that will make a difference – and Ugarte is a man that the club reportedly want.
Ugarte joined Sporting for just over £5million in the summer of 2021 from fellow Portuguese side Famalicao.
“Manuel Ugarte very close to becoming a new CHELSEA player. Contract for 6 years, about 65 million Euros. His desire to play in the Premier League is getting closer,” Journalist recently claimed Franco Fernández.
‘I cannot comment on this issue, because it is beyond me. Now, we know that it is difficult to keep players like Ugarte,’ Amorim told Ojogo.
‘Not just one club is interested, but several. Our objective is to sell, knowing that we missed the Champions League and it makes everything more difficult. I know what I want for the team and I have already conveyed that to the management.’

This is hopefully a player that Mauricio Pochettino wants and not who Ted Boehly desires.
We have seen to many signings over the past few windows that are not what the bosses want – so it will be interesting to seee how this plays out.
