Juventus Scouts Manchester United Midfielder Manuel Ugarte at Allianz Stadium Friendly
Italian reports indicate that Juventus may be eyeing Manchester United midfielder Manuel Ugarte for a potential summer transfer. The Turin club is reportedly set to observe the Uruguayan international when he features for his national team against Algeria in an international friendly at the Allianz Stadium on Tuesday evening.
Summer Move for Ugarte on Juventus' Radar?
According to insights from La Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus has maintained an interest in Ugarte for several years, tracing back to his time at Sporting CP.
The same Monday report suggests that the Bianconeri previously made multiple attempts to bring Ugarte to Turin, both during his tenure with Paris Saint-Germain and more recently during his spell with Manchester United.
Juventus' interest persists, with La Gazzetta dello Sport speculating that a summer bid for the Uruguayan international could materialize, especially if midfielder Teun Koopmeiners departs Turin during the upcoming transfer window.
Interestingly, Galatasaray is also reportedly monitoring Koopmeiners and views Ugarte as a potential backup option.
The friendly match against Algeria at the Allianz Stadium on Tuesday evening provides Juventus with a crucial opportunity to observe Ugarte firsthand alongside his national teammates.
Bianconeri director Marco Ottolini is expected to be in attendance, with intentions of closely monitoring the 24-year-old, who joined Manchester United for a reported fee of €50 million two summers ago.
