Manchester United want to make sure that this time they have their backs covered in case they suffer an injury crisis like last year, something that Erik ten Hag complained about several times in press conferences as he lacked enough players to cover the absences.
The Red Devils have decided to get to work in the transfer market to alleviate last season's problems and after the Mancunian club announced the signing of Lille gem Leny Yoro to reinforce their defense, it is now the turn of the midfield.
The Old Trafford outfit have reportedly reached an agreement on personal terms with Paris Saint-Germain's Manuel Ugarte, who could leave the French club after just one season in Ligue 1.
The Parisian side paid 60 million euros for the player last summer, and therefore will not let the Uruguayan leave for a low price, despite the fact that he has not been a regular starter this season. In fact, Ugarte has a contract until 2028 in Paris, so it will not be easy negotiations for Manchester United.
