MANUEL UGARTE ON PLAYING FOR MANCHESTER UNITED

Uruguayan football player Manuel Ugante expressed that he jumped at the opportunity to play for Manchester United, while he was signed to Paris Saint-Germain.

“I think when I signed for PSG, there was already some interest [from United]. When I then found out that they were interested in me, I said that I wanted to go there, because we all know about United’s history. And as I said earlier, they defined a moment, they defined an era in football. It’s everything. United is one of the greatest clubs in the world, and if they want you, you don’t think twice, and it fills you with pride,” he said, according to Showmax.

He went on to say that the Premier League is the best league in the world and suits his style of play.

“The Premier League’s the best league in the world. It’s on a different level. It’s another experience a player must have, because games here are unique, and you don’t think twice about coming to the best team in England. So, yes, I do feel like the Premier League suits my style of play,” he said on playing for the Premier League.

Ugarte also reminisced on his debut at Old Trafford and how he felt the crowd before he came out to wave to fans. He expressed that it was incredible and he enjoyed it.

“Yes, the first match, and I also came out once before, before an international break, where I came out to wave to the fans. Before you come out, you can feel the crowd, and it was something unique too. It’s one of those moments you treasure. And the first match too, it was incredible, I really enjoyed it. With how much you want to win and play, you sometimes don’t notice everything, but it was unique,” he said.
