£51M star sends first message to Manchester United fans after sealing move – ‘feels incredible’

Manuel Ugarte has admitted that it is an incredible feeling to join Manchester United after he ended months of speculation and rumours on deadline day to seal a switch to Old Trafford.

Erik Ten Hag has made some big signings this summer window and added players to the side that will make a real difference in their attempts to get back challenging for that Premier League title.

Ugarte is a player that Ten Hag has wanted all summer long and Manchester United have been working on a deal with PSG for months now – and the club have finally got their man.

And after sealing his move to Old Trafford – Manuel Ugarte said: “It is an incredible feeling to join a club of this magnitude; one that is admired all around the world. The project that the football leadership discussed with me is extremely exciting; Manchester United is an ambitious club and I am an ambitious player.

“The passion of supporters is something that is very important to me; I know how incredible United fans are and I cannot wait to experience Old Trafford. I’m someone who is so determined to succeed; I will sacrifice and give everything for my teammates.

‘Together we will fight to win trophies and reach the level where this club needs to be.”

Dan Ashworth, Manchester United sporting director, said: “Signing Manuel was another of our primary targets for this summer. He is among the very best ball-winning midfield players in the world and has an excellent record at both club and international level. His qualities, experience and passion will be a great complement to our strong group of midfielders.

“Manuel is a player we’ve watched closely, and we are excited to see the positive impact he will make on the pitch and in the dressing room as we continue to strive for success.”
