Talks advancing

Asking price
According to a report from GiveMeSport, "talks" are "advancing" amongst the various parties involved, according to Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth: Negotiations over Manuel Ugarte are progressing between PSG and Manchester United. Before the deadline, a cautiously optimistic move may be made. Both United and PSG prefer a permanent agreement, but an obligation-based loan is also being discussed.

Asking price

The Manchester Evening News reports that the Red Devils are currently "unwilling" to reach PSG's estimate of £51.1 million, suggesting that a temporary agreement is becoming more plausible. It is believed that the action will rely on if Scott McTominay is sold before the cutoff date. Fulham, a team in the top division, had sought him, but they have since switched their attention to Sander Berge of Burnley.

PSG stance

The Daily Mail claims that while the Ligue 1 powerhouses are "happy" to see the star go, they have no intention of bringing down his asking price. According to their claim, if McTominay departs, he would be a "direct replacement" for him at Napoli in Serie A. The Scotland international's contract expires in 2025, although United has the option to extend it by an additional year if they so choose.

Left out of squad

The 23-year-old Ugarte was left out of PSG's starting lineup for their first-day match. Although he moved to France barely a year ago, it appears that he will soon be leaving. "Manuel Ugarte, OUT of PSG squad for their opening Ligue 1 game," said Fabrizio Romano on X. He has always wanted to play for Manchester United.

Exactly right. However, that will depend on what PSG wants. Ugarte is adamant that he wants the #MUFC to happen as soon as feasible.
