Bidding war erupts for Man Utd star, with lucrative sale funding Ashworth’s final two signings in dream window

Fulham have reignited their interest in a Manchester United star who has approved a transfer to a Euro giant, and the lucrative sale would help the Red Devils complete a dream transfer window with two final signings, per reports.

Noussair Mazraoui, Matthijs De Ligt, Leny Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee have already arrived at Old Trafford this summer. Zirkzee made an instant impact during the debut when scoring a late winner against Fulham.

Man Utd still aim to make two more additions, with players being sought in central midfield and at left-back.

PSG’s Manuel Ugarte is the primary goal in midfield and personal terms are in place. However, as yet PSG have shown no willingness to lower their lofty €60m/£51m asking price.

The first is they convince PSG to reduce their demands. Given PSG have already signed Ugarte’s replacement in Joao Neves, it’s not out of the question PSG do relax their stance in the final days of the window.

The second option is Man Utd sell a player that allows the club to finance the killer bid for Ugarte.

The third and final avenue open to Man Utd and sporting director Dan Ashworth is the club walk away from Ugarte and sign a cheaper alternative.

On that front, the likes of Sofyan Amrabat and Sander Berge are both keen to sign for the Red Devils.

However, Man Utd may not have to compromise on signing Ugarte after transfer interest in Scott McTominay hit a new high.
