Recent updates from Manchester United indicates that their pursuit of Manuel Ugarte is complete, meanwhile with a rejected swap deal with Chelsea, Jadon Sancho’s transfer faces complications.
Following Manchester United’s rejection of a proposed swap deal which would have led the fans to see him exchanged for Chelsea’s Ben Chilwell, the future of Jadon Sancho’s at United remains uncertain. Manchester United has been aiming to reduce the wage bill to facilitate incoming transfer and hence Sancho has been a point of contention, with the management trying to finalize his exit. Jadon Sancho has been on loan at Borussia Dortmund for most of the second half of the last season and is only interested in sanctioning a permanent move or a loan with an obligation to buy clause.
On a more positive note, it appears that Manchester United are successful in securing the signing of Manuel Ugarte from Paris Saint-Germain at a deal worth £60m including all performance bonus. Ugarte only wanted United and United only wanted him. Ugarte has already accepted personal terms, and both teams have reportedly ironed out the details of this transfer making a deal worth £50.7m (£60m), regarded as a key move to boost the midfield.
Selling talents like Sancho will help combat financial problems, in addition to squad dynamics. United hopes to free up room by better management of the compensation structure for when future big additions arrive. This news, in the end, points out Manchester United in their current period of change as they work down to putting together a competitive team for the coming campaign while managing the contracts of the current and possible transfers.
