Manuel Ugarte: In
Manchester United’s top target currently, a move for Manuel Ugarte looks far more likely than it did a fortnight ago.
United had stepped back to consider other options, fearing a deal could not be done with Paris Saint-Germain.
PSG have now axed Ugarte from their squad, showing their hand, and super-agent Jorge Mendes is attempting to facilitate a deal.
A deal could now be done which is a loan with an obligation to buy, with The Telegraph reporting PSG have even proposed the terms to United.
This move has been making progress over the past 48 hours and United fans are hopeful there could be an agreement before the week has completed.
Facundo Pellistri: Out
Manchester United are set to wave goodbye to Uruguay international winger Facundo Pellistri, who is set to join Panathinaikos.
Greek outlet Sport 24 report Pellistri is set to undergo a medical with the club ahead of his proposed move, and claim he could even be in their squad for their Europa Conference League game this Thursday.
United are set to net between £5-6 million with an extra £1.5 million in add-ons, plus a sell-on clause.
Will Fish: Out
Centre-back Will Fish is another set to clinch a permanent exit from Manchester United shortly.
Fish has agreed a move to Championship side Cardiff City, The MEN claim, with the Red Devils sanctioning a move. BBC Sport report it is expected to be finalised this week.
The Bluebirds have raised funds by selling defender Mark McGuiness to Luton Town for £10 million so funds will not be an issue – although Fish’s exit is unlikely to bring in very much, no amounts have yet been specified.
Maxi Oyedele: Out
Talented Manchester United midfielder Maxi Oyedele is now set to agree a permanent exit from the club.
Poland under-21 international Oyedele is set to sign for Polish side Legia Warsaw, and he is keen on the move, The Mail report.
Expect United to add in a buy-back clause and sell-on fee, to have some input into Oyedele’s future, similar to how the club did with Matej Kovar.
Radek Vitek: Loan
Exciting goalkeeper Radek Vitek has left Manchester United on a loan deal to join Austrian side BW Linz.
This is an opportunity for Vitek to play top flight football for the newly promoted side and should be a great test for the Czech stopper, who demonstrated in pre-season that he has a big future.
United have now confirmed the move, with the loan a season-long arrangement.
