Little by little, Manuel Ugarte makes his nest at Manchester United. Arrived last summer from Paris Saint-Germain, the Uruguayan defensive midfielder stands out as one of the few satisfactions of a Mancunian team in great difficulty (13th of Premier League). In any case, this is the opinion of the new number of the Red Devils, Rasmus Højlund.
The Danish striker believes that the former Sporting player does not receive the recognition he deserves, despite his commitment on the field. In his eyes, Ugarte is undoubtedly among the best current elements of United.
“He's an exceptional player”
“The most under-coated player of the team?” Manuel Ugarte “replied Højlund in an interview with
Sky Sports. “We see his good performance a little more with the new manager (Ruben Amorim, Editor's note). Of course, the results are not good enough but he is an exceptional player lately. We see its quality. »»
And add: “These big workers are not sufficiently appreciated. For example, Amad (Diallo) is incredible at the moment and he is starting to have recognition. But Manu was also very, very good. We are starting to see that he evolves at another level. »»
