Manchester United makes moves to sign midfielder – told £30M will get deal done
It has been claimed that Manchester United have made contact with Burnley over a potential deal for midfielder Sander Berge.
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
Talks United and Paris Saint-Germain about a move for midfielder Manuel Ugarte have been going on for weeks – but the Red Devils have not been able to wrap up a deal for the midfield star.
But if Man United cannot complete the signing of Ugarte – it has been claimed that Burnley will allow Berge to leave the club this summer if there £30 million valuation is met by the Red Devils, or any other club.
The Old Trafford club are already understood to have made contact with Berge’s representatives, And the Clarets, following relegation from the Premier League, would be willing to sell the 26-year-old holding midfielder.
SunSport understands that Manchester United would be prepared to pay £20m for the player signed for £12m from Sheffield United a year ago, but Burnley, now bossed by Scott Parker after Vincent Kompany took over at Bayern Munich, would hold out for £10m more.
They are under no pressure to sell given that they have a £100m parachute payment to rely on.
Berge, big mates with star international team mates Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard, has become a surprise alternative target following Old Trafford’s refusal to meet PSG’s valuation of £51M for Uruguayan Manuel Ugarte.

Berge is a very good player that has proven himself in the Premier League – so if Man United get the man – they could be getting a very good player for not alot of money.
