Manchester United are close to signing Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte, according to GFFN.

The player’s cost will be around £51 million (€60 million).

Last year, PSG signed Ugarte from Sporting for a fee of €60 million.

Throughout the summer, the Ligue 1 champions have demanded the same money.

Ugarte impressed early last season but was dropped from Luis Enrique’s squad.

However, United manager Erik ten Hag feels the 23-year-old can have a significant influence at Old Trafford.

Ugarte was left out of PSG’s Ligue 1 opener against Le Havre ahead of the transfer.
