Transfer: Ugarte pulled from PSG team for Le Havre meeting amid Manchester United interest.

Manuel Ugarte has been left out of the Paris Saint-Germain team for their first Ligue 1 match against Le Havre.

The 23-year-old has been linked with a move to Manchester United this summer.

Ugarte is no longer in PSG's 20-man squad for Saturday's game, implying that a transfer is imminent.

According to Fabrizio Romano, United are continuing in talks with PSG, and the transaction is "absolutely on".

Ugarte joined from Sporting Lisbon for roughly £51 million ($66 million), which is comparable to what PSG is currently asking of his suitors.

However, United has been reluctant to meet that asking fee, causing the trade to stall.
