With a view to renewing a group now led by Luis Enrique, Paris Saint-Germain has bet on Manuel Ugarte, a young defector from Sporting Lisbon. While he should take his first steps in Ligue 1 against FC Lorient this Saturday, the Uruguayan lent himself while waiting for the game of the interview with The Team. In the columns of the sports daily, the 22-year-old player mentioned the weight of his transfer to Paris. As a reminder, the reigning French champion paid no less than €60 million, i.e. the amount of the release clause set by the Leonesto attach his qualities of recuperator.
“It’s true that it’s crazy, I’m grateful to the club for making such an effort. I know I have a responsibility, but I don’t want to put pressure on myself because it could backfire. I come with a huge desire to play, learn and work. I will try to make it on the ground. And I hope that people say that these 60 M€ were worth it”expressed the new Parisian sentinel.
