Manchester United transfer boost as expert explains why their top midfield target needs to be sold

Paris Saint-Germain need to sell Manuel Ugarte and other players this summer, in what could be a major boost for Manchester United.

Speaking exclusively to CaughtOffside for his latest Daily Briefing column, French football expert Jonathan Johnson provided some insight into PSG’s plans for the rest of the summer, with the Ligue 1 giants likely to need to offload a few players before the end of the summer if they are to be able to make the further signings they want.

“Milan Skriniar, meanwhile, is someone who PSG could move on if there were to be a suitable offer for him. I think PSG would be quite happy to cash in on him, but it’s been difficult at times for PSG to drum up the right kind of interest. You can also see this as they try to do a deal involving Manuel Ugarte and Jadon Sancho, with Fabrizio Romano confirming that Manchester United currently view the asking price for Ugarte as too…
