While João Palhinha remains silent about his future, FC Bayern is being linked with new candidates. Is a star coming from Paris?
Munich – If the silenced João Palhinha does not sign a contract with FC Bayern this summer, the question remains as to how the club’s officials will react. Compared to last year, when there was drama on the last day of the transfer window, Bayern’s executives have much more time in the coming weeks to find an alternative.
Is FC Bayern watching a PSG star?
After Hakan Calhanoglu of Inter Milan publicly responded to rumors about a possible move to Munich and declared his loyalty to the Nerazzurri, the next transfer rumor is already circulating. According to information from CBS Sports FC Bayern are said to have their eye on Manuel Ugarte.

The Uruguayan player attracted attention at Sporting between 2021 and 2023 and then moved to Paris St. Germain for 60 million euros. Despite 37 appearances and 2,449 minutes of play, Ugarte was not an indispensable regular in defensive midfield. From the Champions League round of 16 onwards, Ugarte only made two brief appearances in the premier class, was not considered at all in the semi-final against Borussia Dortmund and only played 21 times from the start in Ligue 1.
International transfer poker for Ugarte?
Given this record and the transfer fee previously paid, PSG could consider a sale if a reasonable offer is made. CBS Sports However, reports that an initial offer from Manchester United was rejected due to too large a price difference.
In addition to FC Bayern and United, there is also interest in Ugarte from England and Italy. However, the 23-year-old is initially concentrating on the Copa América, where Uruguay won the opening match against Panama 3-1 on Monday. Ugarte played the full 90 minutes – and could potentially increase interest with a strong tournament performance.
