Manchester United have agreed terms with Manuel Ugarte over a move to the club, with the player keen on moving to the club, according to reports.
United are eager to continue their recruitment of players from the French top-flight after announcing the capture of Leny Yoro and are now stepping up their move for Ugarte.
The Uruguayan midfielder shares the same agent as Yoro - Jorge Mendes - and contract terms have been agreed upon, with Ugarte wanting to make the switch even without United being able to offer Champions League football, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.
However, Mail Sport understands there is currently no agreement between the two clubs and PSG won't sell the player for less than £59m.
The 23-year-old moved to Paris in a £42m deal from Sporting Lisbon only last summer and PSG have been unsure on whether they want to sell a player who fits their profile of building a younger team without superstar names.

United manager Erik ten Hag is keen to continue making further summer reinforcements
Negotiations between the two clubs are continuing but are currently at an early stage, despite the developments on personal terms between the involved parties.
Another stumbling block for United and their new INEOS recruitment team could be the competition from other European and Premier League clubs who are showing strong interest.
Bayern Munich have enquired over the rising star's availability, while two Italian sides and one Premier League club have also made contact with PSG over a potential deal.
United are also facing the prospect of needing to sell another midfielder before they can look to make Ugarte the latest addition to Erik ten Hag's squad.
Scott McTominay - who scored 10 goals in all competitions for the club last season - is one of the players that could make way for Ugarte's arrival.

Veteran Brazilian midfielder Casemiro could also leave after a difficult second season at Old Trafford as United finished eighth in the Premier League.
Meanwhile, United have been amongst the Premier League's busiest recruiters during the off-season with deals already completed for Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee.
Announcing the arrival of Yoro from Lille on Thursday, the 18-year-old said: 'Signing for a club with the stature and ambition of Manchester United so early in my career is an incredible honour.
'Since my first conversations with the club, they set out a clear plan for how I can develop in Manchester as part of this exciting project, and showed a lot of care for me and my family.'
