Sky Sports revealed that Man Utd had to pay a huge amount of money for Manuel Ugarte.
Man Utd are active in the transfer market this summer. They have announced two quality new recruits early.
Accordingly, Joshua Zirkzee arrived at Old Trafford from Bologna for about 42.5 million euros, with a payment clause in 3 years. The Leny Yoro deal cost about 50 million euros, with additional terms that could increase to 70 million euros.
While the deal for Yoro to join the Red Devils had not yet cooled down, Manuel Ugarte quickly reached a personal agreement with the team.
Journalist Romano added: “PSG are ready to let Manuel Ugarte leave with the destination being Manchester United because they want Joao Neves at all costs .”
However, Ugarte’s price is not cheap. Specifically, Sky Sports confirmed that the 23-year-old player’s price is up to 70 million euros. PSG wants to make a profit from the price they paid for Ugarte last summer, which was 60 million euros.
This is a really crazy number knowing that Ugarte did not play very successfully in the capital city of Paris.
Man Utd will definitely have to negotiate a lower price because they do not accept this figure. The source also confirmed that Man Utd is determined to make Ugarte their third contract in the summer transfer window this year.
