Sky Sports recently suggested that Manuel Ugarte is a player being targetted by Man Utd, despite joining Paris Saint-Germain just a year ago.

Everton close in on attacker
It comes after our story that Everton are closing in on a deal for Iliman Ndiaye of Marseille while there is interest in Issa Kabore of Manchester City too, FootballTransfers has been told.
Ndiaye has verbally agreed to move to Goodison Park ahead of next season and a deal could reach for a fee of €20 million inclusive of add-ons, with the two clubs now just needing to finalise a move for the Senegal international.
Head coach Sean Dyche has pinpointed the need to bolster the attacking area of the pitch this summer after the side’s poor form in front of goal last season in which they scored the third-lowest amount of Premier League goals, an average of 1.05 per match.
With Arnaut Danjuma departing after his spell ended from Villarreal, the club is set to welcome Jack Harrison back on another loan deal from Leeds.
Armando Broja of Chelsea remains of interest but that is likely to be if Dominic Calvert-Lewin is moved on, even though Newcastle has withdrawn from the race to sign the forward.
