Manuel Ugarte lands in England to complete his Man United medical after jetting over from Paris… as the Red Devils finally agree £50m deal with PSG for the highly-rated midfielder

Manuel Ugarte has landed in England to complete his Manchester United medical.

The PSG midfielder, who travelled to the UK from Paris by private jet, touched down late on Tuesday night before heading to Manchester to undergo medical tests.

The clubs agreed on a fee on Monday night after Manchester United’s Jason Wilcox headed to Paris to finalise negotiations. Wilcox was joined in the French capital by Matt Hargreaves, the club’s director of player negotiations.

The deal for Ugarte is worth an initial £42million plus a further £8.4m in add-ons, taking the total fee to just north of £50m.

Negotiations with PSG accelerated after United were able to agree a £26m deal with Napoli over the sale of midfielder Scott McTominay. Meanwhile, United starlet Hannibal Mejbri has joined Burnley in a deal worth up to £9.5m.
