7 tackles won, 91% pass accuracy, Manchester United transfer target produces international masterclass

Pellistri scored for Uruguay, who demolished Bolivia 5-0. Inter earned rave reviews from its national press.

He did so with little help from his teammates, none more so than tireless Manchester United transfer target Manuel Ugarte.

Manuel Ugarte impresses

Manchester United are interested in a move for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte, reports ESPN.

He showed exactly why he would be a strong addition to the Manchester United midfielder in the win over Bolivia.

• 7 tackles won
• 10 duels won
• 2 Interceptions
• 75 touches
• Pass accuracy of 91%.

National newspaper El Observador gave his performance a 7/10, noting his command in midfield.

Uruguay are already in the knockout stages with one game to go. Ugarte and Pellistri could be rested for their final group game against the USA.

The midfield changes

PSG are considering a move for a home-grown midfield target, Everton midfielder Amadou Onana.

This would likely free up Manuel Ugarte to move to Manchester United, provided a fee is agreed.

In turn, United are expected to sell midfielder Casemiro, while Sofyan Amrabat is not expected to return after his long-term loan.

But it could be some time before Ugarte links up with United, with Uruguay looking to go on and win the Copa America, which ends on July 14.
