of manchester united Manuel Ugarte is looking increasingly likely to leave this summer and his future has been linked to Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes.
The Uruguayan has been unconvincing since joining Paris Saint-Germain in 2024. He has yet to start a game since the arrival of Michael Carrick and has hardly been involved this season.
sports witness Interest from Juventus was recently covered but a deal is likely to be difficult.
This was mainly due to finances, with Manchester United seeking a permanent deal. Juventus were looking for an initial loan, looking for him during the international break.
Now, interest from Napoli has resurfaced but they appear to be focusing more on Wolves' Joao Gomes.
Mendes is helping Ugarte out
of napolimagazine Emanuele Cammarotto reports on Napoli's intentions to strengthen their midfield this summer.
They have been given the chance to sign Ugarte, with Jorge Mendes working together to help Manchester United. There is belief the 24-year-old will leave Old Trafford and Napoli are monitoring his situation.
However, their interest in the Red Devils player is not as strong as they would now like to target Wolves' Gomes.
They attempted to sign Gomes in January and have continued to work on a deal for the player.
This may be mainly due to financial reasons. Wolves' pending relegation could help Napoli gain an exemption.
Manchester United should accept defeat
The longer Manchester United keeps Ugarte, the further his valuation will fall. They invested a significant amount of money in him and ideally they would like to return the amount paid to PSG.
Italian clubs will not be able to afford this and that is why the Red Devils should be open to discounts.
Furthermore, Manchester United wants at least two midfielders in the summer. Any money earned will only help, with Casemiro also gone at the end of the campaign.
As far as Wolves are concerned, he probably won't have any say in Gomes' future. Their best bet is to promote the auction, which will help them earn as much as possible from its sales.
