Four important players had injuries during the US tour, which meant that MU was always in the dark regarding their roster. As a result, the “Red Devils” needed to bolster their roster immediately.Metro gave Manucians some positive news amid a flurry of unfavorable personnel announcements. Journalist Tony Mogan claims that PSG has given MU the go-ahead for the Manuel Ugarte trade. The international player from Uruguay is probably going to be the “Red Devils”‘ next addition this summer.
As a result, the French team decided to accept the offer to loan the 23-year-old midfielder to MU for a single season, with a buyout clause, rather than selling him to MU altogether. Prior to this, PSG and Benfica had an agreement to sign midfielder Joao Neves. They are prepared to let Ugarte go as a result.
The issue lies in MU’s assessment of PSG’s 60 million euro demand in the Ugarte agreement as being unreasonable. Thus, the parties decided on a one-year loan, with the understanding that MU would pay a large transfer fee to acquire Ugarte outright if he performed well enough.
Manuel Ugarte, on the other hand, has a long-standing personal agreement with MU. The talent from Uruguay is reportedly eager to join Old Trafford. Consequently, Ugarte is prepared to travel to Manchester for a medical examination as soon as PSG gives its approval. This transaction is anticipated to occur following the official signing of Joao Neves’ contract by PSG. Thus, on August 10, when MU plays Man City in the Community Shield, it is expected that this new player would be introduced.
Ivan Toney, a striker, is a possibility that MU is seriously contemplating hiring, according to the Manchester Evening News. The injury to striker Rasmus Hojlund, who will miss six weeks, poses a serious challenge for the “Red Devils”. Furthermore, Antony and Marcus Rashford both need to visit the hospital.It’s obvious that MU needs more support for their attack. The issue is that MU’s board of directors is leery since Brentford Club is demanding a price of more than 80 million euros for a striker like Toney, who is only 28 years old. They are not willing to spend too much money on a contract because Old Trafford’s management was taken over by British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe’s INEOS Group. MU pulled out of the Branthwaite agreement for this reason.
