Manchester United have ceased their pursuit of PSG midfielder Manuel Ugarte due to PSG's steadfast demand for a €60 million (£51.4m) fee, which United are unwilling to meet. Despite agreeing personal terms with Ugarte, United have identified alternative targets including Sander Berge, Richard Ríos, Martín Zubimendi, and Sofyan Amrabat. PSG, having signed Joao Neves from Benfica, are open to loaning Ugarte with a purchase option but remain firm on their valuation for a permanent sale. United have already made signings this summer, including Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro, and are looking to further strengthen their midfield, especially with the potential exits of Casemiro and Scott McTominay.
