Mendes offers Ugarte to Juventus and Milan

Manchester United midfielder Ugarte has been offered to Serie A giants Juventus and Milan by his agent Jorge Mendes, according to Gazzetta.

Ugarte, 25, has been struggling for playing time at Old Trafford this season, collecting barely 1,000 minutes on the pitch in 2025-26.

His agent is seeking an exit route for his client from Manchester United, and both Juventus and Milan have been informed of the midfielder’s availability to join them this summer.

According to Gazzetta, Ugarte is among the Manchester United players Milan can pick in a potential player-plus-cash swap deal for Rafael Leao.

Juventus, on the other hand, have prioritised another Jorge Mendes client, Bernardo Silva, who is available on a free transfer as his contract with Manchester City runs out this coming June.

According to Gazzetta, the Old Lady has already offered Bernardo Silva a €7m-a-year contract until 2029.
