Carrick urges expensive Man Utd player to depart as Amorim begins negotiations.

Ruben Amorim, the former manager of Manchester United, has recently been appointed as the new manager of AC Milan. This move marks Amorim's return to the world of football management, after being sacked by Manchester United five months ago. AC Milan have set their sights on Manuel Ugarte, a midfielder from Manchester United, and have begun negotiations to sign him for their team under their new boss, Ruben Amorim.

The Portuguese manager has identified Ugarte as a top target for the summer transfer window, as he looks to strengthen the squad that finished fifth in Serie A last season. Amorim, who signed a two-year deal with AC Milan, is determined to bring his former player to Italy and help him revive his career. The 25-year-old Uruguayan previously played under Amorim at Sporting and then followed him to Manchester United in a £42m deal from PSG.

However, Ugarte has struggled to make an impact at Old Trafford, with limited game time under both Amorim and Michael Carrick. Despite this, Ugarte still has admirers across Europe and Amorim's AC Milan are eager to secure his signature. It is believed that Carrick has informed Ugarte that he is no longer needed at Manchester United and should find a new club as the team prepares to welcome new signings, including Brazilian midfielder Ederson.

Ugarte has accepted that his future lies away from Manchester United and has instructed his agent, Jorge Mendes, to find him a new club. Mendes has already begun discussions with AC Milan, and it seems that Ugarte is open to reuniting with Amorim for a third time. However, AC Milan will have to reach an agreement with Manchester United, who are reportedly looking to receive £30m for Ugarte.

This asking price is causing hesitation from the Serie A side, who are reluctant to meet it. In a recent interview, Ugarte expressed his determination to stay at Manchester United and fight for a spot in the team. He also acknowledged the struggles he has faced, stating that they have taught him valuable lessons and he is confident that his opportunity will come.

Meanwhile, Uruguayan compatriot Gus Poyet has advised Ugarte to make the best decision for himself and his family. Poyet, who once wanted Ugarte to join Chelsea, believes that the midfielder needs to find the right club after his stint at Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United. In addition to Ugarte, Amorim is also looking to sign a new striker and has his eye on Goncalo Ramos, a former target of Manchester United.

The summer transfer window is an important one for Ugarte, and Poyet hopes that he will make the right decision for his career and his family. As we eagerly await the outcome of these transfer talks, let's not forget the exciting action happening in the World Cup.
