Coach Erik ten Hag has just extended his contract with MU until June 2026 thanks to the achievements of winning the FA Cup and League Cup. However, in the 2023-2024 Premier League season, the "Red Devils" only finished 8th. Although only participating in the Europa League season 2024-2025, the team at Old Trafford is still shopping wildly with the goal of reviving the team in the Premier League championship race.

MU has just completed the purchase of two new stars, striker Joshua Zirkzee and center back Leny Yoro, from Bologna (Italy) and Lille (France) respectively, for a total value of about 90 million euros. At the same time, they said goodbye to striker Mason Greenwood (to Marseille, France) and Donny van de Beek (to Girona, Spain).
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, a transfer information expert: "MU is preparing to let go of one of two more stars, Casemiro or Scott McTominay. They will even transfer both if they reach an agreement in the current negotiations (to Saudi Arabia), in order to make room and fund to recruit Manuel Ugarte from PSG. Manuel Ugarte convinced coach Erik ten Hag when he played extremely well at the Copa America in the Uruguay national team's jersey."
"MU has now reached personal terms with Manuel Ugarte. The 23-year-old also wants to join MU despite the team not having a place in the Champions League in the 2024-2025 season. MU is also negotiating with PSG, but the deal has not been finalized.
The reason is that Manuel Ugarte is also being bought by many other clubs and is negotiating with PSG. MU's advantage is that Manuel Ugarte has the same representative as the player Leny Yoro they just recruited, that is "super agent" Jorge Mendes. Manuel Ugarte's transfer fee is estimated at around 45 million euros, but could increase thanks to the player's performance since the recent Copa America," Fabrizio Romano shared.

Meanwhile, MU's rival, Man City, officially recruited Brazilian winger Savio from Troyes Club (France) for a fee of only 24.9 million euros. Savio, 20 years old, scored 1 goal for the Brazilian team at Copa America, when he only appeared on the bench and showed his very promising ability.
