Man Utd turn to Burnley star amid Manuel Ugarte doubts; Jose Mourinho could torch transfer

Manchester United are reportedly interested in Burnley star Sander Berge but former manager Jose Mourinho could derail the potential transfer, per reports.

The Red Devils are keen to bring in midfield reinforcements before the summer window slams shut and their top target is Paris-Saint Germain’s Manuel Ugarte.

But due to PSG’s price demands of over £50m, Man Utd are ready to move on and focus on alternatives.

As we have previously reported, midfielders such as Adrien Rabiot, Martin Zubimendi and Adam Wharton are being targeted – along with Berge of Burnley.

The Lancashire side are understood to be willing to sell Berge for the right price this summer after signing him from Sheffield United for £12m one year ago.

The 26-year-old made 37 Premier League appearances for Burnley last term, scoring one goal and making two assists in the process, but was unable to prevent their relegation.
