DONE DEAL: Ugarte's move to Man Utd sparks 'incredible feeling'

The 23-year-old Uruguayan player has joined the team for a record-breaking £50.5 million fee. He has signed a five-year contract with the possibility of extending for another year.

"It is an incredible feeling to join a club of this magnitude; one that is admired all around the world," said Ugarte.

"Manchester United is an ambitious club and I am an ambitious player. I know how incredible United fans are and I cannot wait to experience Old Trafford.

"I'm someone who is so determined to succeed; I will sacrifice and give everything for my team-mates. Together we will fight to win trophies and reach the level where this club needs to be."

United sporting director Dan Ashworth said: "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."
