Ugarte has been left out of PSG’s squad for their Ligue 1 opener against Le Havre.

Manchester United have been given the chance for a slight revival in their bid to sign Paris Saint-Germain’s midfield star Manuel Ugarte in the final weeks of the window – with major news dropping out of France that the tough tackler has been left out of their squad to face Le Havre on the opening weekend of the Ligue 1 season.

 

The Red Devils have been after the former Sporting star throughout the window, with inclementing bids getting closer to PSG’s valuation but not quite hitting the proposed target. With Sofyan Amrabat leaving United to return to Fiorentina after his loan spell, there is still a possibility that the Moroccan comes back to United on a permanent deal – but if a deal for Ugarte can be done, then United will land their top target. And that has gotten closer to becoming a reality with the midfielder being left out of Luis Enrique’s squad on Friday evening, according to Jacobs.
