Fabrizio Romano has said that Manuel Ugarte will leave Manchester United in the summer transfer window.

The well-known and well-respected Italian journalist has claimed that Ugarte’s agent is already on ways to get the Uruguay international midfielder out of Old Trafford.

Romano said on the Here We Go podcast: “Some players will leave, especially in midfield.

“The name of Manuel Ugarte is the name I keep hearing as one of the players expected to leave. I would say there is a 95% chance of seeing Ugarte leaving Manchester United in the summer transfer window.

“His agent is already working on solutions. There is interest from several clubs, so I think Manuel Ugarte is definitely leaving.”

Man Utd will play in the Champions League next season after interim manager Michael Carrick guaranteed their place in the top five of the Premier League table in the 2025/26 campaign.
