According to reports, PSG have agreed to pay Sporting Lisbon's £52 million release clause to sign 22-year-old Uruguayan midfielder Manuel Ugarte. The deal is expected to be completed in the coming days.
Ugarte has been a standout performer for Sporting this season, making 47 appearances in all competitions and scoring two goals. He is known for his strong tackling, passing ability, and work ethic.
PSG are looking to add to their midfield options ahead of next season, and Ugarte is seen as a long-term replacement for Marco Verratti. The Italian midfielder has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months, and Ugarte could provide a similar level of creativity and control in the middle of the park.
Ugarte's arrival would be a major coup for PSG, and he could be a key player for the club in the years to come. He is a young, talented player with a lot of potential, and he could help PSG to challenge for the Champions League title next season.
