Manchester United have completed the signing of Uruguay midfielder Manuel Ugarte from Paris Saint-Germain.

The 22-year-old has signed a five-year contract at Old Trafford, with the option of a further year.

Ugarte is a combative and creative midfielder who can play in a variety of roles.

• He is known for his tenacity in the tackle and his ability to break up the play.
• He is also a good passer and has an eye for goal.

Ugarte is a full Uruguay international and has represented his country at the U20 and U23 levels.

He joins a United team that is looking to rebuild under new manager Erik ten Hag.

Ten Hag has already made a number of signings this summer, including Lisandro Martinez, Christian Eriksen, and Tyrell Malacia.

Ugarte is likely to be a key part of Ten Hag's plans for the new season.

He will add steel and creativity to United's midfield and will be hoping to help the club challenge for silverware in the coming years.
