In recent developments, reports indicate that a deal with Paris Saint-Germain for the 23-year-old Uruguayan midfielder is nearly finalized, following prolonged negotiations where the two clubs initially struggled to reach a compromise.

Ugarte himself is believed to have agreed on personal terms as far back as July, further fueling speculation about his future.

Reports also suggest that Manuel Ugarte is on standby, awaiting the green light to travel to Manchester, where he is expected to undergo his medical and finalize the contract.

With only five days remaining in the transfer window, Manchester United’s chances of enhancing their midfield for the 2024-25 season hinge on the swift resolution of the Ugarte discussions.

While the reason for his trip wasn’t officially disclosed, it’s quite clear that Wilcox is heading to Paris to finalize the deal for Manuel Ugarte.

Wilcox reportedly boarded his flight at 1 p.m. this afternoon, sparking speculation that he will be in discussions with PSG to close the Ugarte transfer, especially with the transfer window closing in less than a week.

This move comes on the heels of United agreeing to a deal with Napoli for Scott McTominay, which is expected to pave the way for Ugarte’s arrival.

The next few hours will be critical, and fans may soon hear a “here we go” from Fabrizio Romano regarding this deal.
