One condition separates Juventus from signing the Manchester player

Italian club Juventus has included the signing of Uruguayan midfielder Manuel Ugarte, a star player for Manchester United, in its plans to strengthen its squad during the upcoming summer transfer window. However, the completion of the deal remains contingent on achieving the primary objective of qualifying for the Champions League . According to Italian press reports, Juventus is closely monitoring the player's situation, given his reduced playing time with the Red Devils this season. He has failed to establish himself as a regular starter since his €50 million transfer from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2014. Juventus officials value Ugarte at around €40 million, which could represent a suitable opportunity for the Italian club as it seeks to rebuild its midfield with young, capable players. This is especially relevant given the possibility of Ugarte leaving Manchester United, as the club's management is reportedly reassessing some signings that have not delivered the expected results . On the other hand, Juventus understands that its ability to secure the deal will not depend solely on financial aspects, but is directly linked to its position in the Serie A standings. The team is aiming for a top-four finish to guarantee Champions League qualification, which gives it a significant advantage in persuading the player to join its ranks . The team is engaged in a fierce battle in the final weeks of the competition, benefiting from the stumbles of some of its rivals, which strengthens its chances of achieving its European objective and bolsters its activity in the summer transfer market . At the same time, Juventus faces competition from several clubs vying for Ugarte's signature, including Galatasaray, Newcastle United, and Aston Villa, which complicates the deal and makes its completion dependent on developments in the coming period, both on and off the field.
