Manuel Ugarte names three reasons why he sealed Man Utd transfer and makes team-mate vow
Manchester United new boy Manuel Ugarte explained that the size of the club, INEOS' project, and the ambition shown by the Red Devils were the determining factors behind his £51million transfer from Paris Saint-Germain.
United had been searching for a defensive midfielder to better compliment Kobbie Mainoo and in Ugarte, they will feel as if they have got their man.
And the Uruguayan has already told United exactly what they want to hear, promising to give all that he can in search of restoring the club to their former glory.

Dan Ashworth, United's sporting director, added: “Signing Manuel was another of our primary targets for this summer. He is among the very best ball-winning midfield players in the world and has an excellent record at both club and international level.
"His qualities, experience and passion will be a great complement to our strong group of midfielders. Manuel is a player we’ve watched closely, and we are excited to see the positive impact he will make on the pitch and in the dressing room as we continue to strive for success.”

Ugarte joins Joshua Zirkzee, Matthijs de Ligt, Leny Yoro and Noussair Mazraoui as new first-team additions this summer, as Erik ten Hag has been seriously backed by the INEOS hierarchy with approximately £180m spent in the transfer window.
And the 23-year-old was not the only deadline day signing at Old Trafford, with young Mali midfielder Sekou Kone also joining for a fee in the region of £1m. He is expected to initially link up with the youth teams.
