Manchester United have finally agreed a deal to sign the club's top midfield target after months of negotiations.

Good news for all Manchester United fans as the club have finally agreed a deal to sign Manuel Ugarte from Paris Saint-Germain.

Negotiations have been going on for over a month, but manager Erik ten Hag has finally landed a midfield destroyer to compensate for the aging legs of Casemiro.

Uguarte to Manchester United; here we go!

PSG midfielder Manuel Uguarte is on his way to Manchester United

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, United offered an initial €50m plus €10m in add-ons, which PSG have finally accepted.

The personal terms are already sorted with Ugarte, so now it's just a matter of completing the medical and making it official.

This is United's fifth signing this transfer window after bringing in Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna, and Leny Yoro from Lille..

Uguarte joined PSG last summer from Sporting CP and had a solid debut season with 37 appearances, but with the arrival of Joao Neves from Benfica, his game time was bound to be cut short.

The Uruguay international will fly to Manchester on Tuesday to wrap up the medical and become a Manchester United player.

Meanwhile Scott McTominay is close to completing a move to Napoli, where he is expected to become an integral part of Antonio Conte's side this season.
