Manchester United have made a breakthrough in their bid to sign Manuel Ugarte with Paris Saint-Germain prepared to accept a loan offer for the midfielder.
Erik ten Hag is eager to strengthen his options in midfield this summer with the Uruguay international emerging as a leading target.
Ugarte joined PSG from Sporting Lisbon last summer having rejected a move to Chelsea but with Joao Neves poised to join the French champions from Benfica, he has slipped further down the pecking order in Paris.
Ugarte is keen on a move to Old Trafford but United hit an impasse in talks last month with PSG reportedly demanding a fee of close to £60million.
