AC Milan are considering a move for Manchester United midfielder Manuel Ugarte, with United reportedly open to selling the Uruguay international this summer.
The interest is said to centre on a possible reunion with Ruben Amorim, who worked with Ugarte at Sporting CP and is now being linked with another attempt to build his midfield around the 25-year-old.
Ugarte joined United from Paris Saint-Germain in August 2024 and remains under contract at Old Trafford, but the latest transfer line suggests the club are ready to listen if the market produces a serious offer.
Ugarte Interest Adds Another Layer To United Midfield Rebuild
The timing matters because Manchester United are already reshaping the middle of the pitch under Michael Carrick, with Casemiro’s exit and the expected arrival of Ederson changing the balance of the squad.
According to a report from The Mirror, Milan are weighing up Ugarte as Amorim looks at a player he knows well from Portugal.
For United, the question is less about Ugarte’s ability than squad fit and resale value. If Milan turn interest into a concrete approach, Carrick could gain another route to fund the next stage of his rebuild.
For Ugarte, the situation now looks like one to watch closely through the summer window rather than a settled Old Trafford future.
