Ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window, one of Milan's priorities, besides signing a striker, will be to acquire a midfielder with excellent physical prowess to place in front of the defensive line.
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, in addition to Youssouf Fofana from Monaco, the name of Manuel Ugarte, a 23-year-old midfielder from Paris Saint-Germain also sought after by Juventus, has emerged in the last hours.
The Uruguayan player has a release clause of 60 million euros, but his agent Jorge Mendes may play an important role in the potential deal: one option could be a loan move, as relayed via Calciomercato.com.
Manuel Ugarte, who joined Paris Saint-Germain in last year's summer from Sporting CP for a 60 million euros fee, has made 35 appearances this season. He played a total of 2269 minutes with three assists to his name. His contract runs until June 2028.
