Spurs need him. Bet his wages are too high though.
He seems the exact opposite of Ange-ball, no thanks. They need a creator, a Modric. They don't need a defensive-negative player
Manuel Ugarte only moved to French side PSG last year but already rumours are swirling over a potential summer exit. Manchester United, who are looking to add at least one central midfielder, have been credited with an interest in the Uruguayan, and on the face of things; it's easy to see...

"Opponents also found it relatively easy to get the better of Ugarte in the middle of the park. Indeed, he was dribbled past 2.1 times per 90, that ranking sixth in Ligue 1, returning a tackle success rate of 68.1% in the process. For a United side as open as they were in the Premier League, Ugarte would be tasked with essentially being a one-man wrecking ball in a key area of the pitch.
For a PSG outfit that did see so much of the ball yet for Ugarte to be dribbled past so frequently, the perceived wrecklessness could prove disastrous for Ten Hag's side. The Dutchman needs a player to prevent teams from chancing their luck so regularly, not one who might struggle with the demands of Premier League football.
While effective on the ball, there are concerns that Ugarte is too safe in possession. A 91.5% pass success rate may have ranked ninth in Ligue 1, yet given PSG's dominance, one would expect this return to be high. Furthermore, when he did seek to pick out a teammate, Ugarte was incredibly safe in doing so, noted in that only 14.6% of his passes went forward last season. "
