Manchester United's summer transfer plans have been thrown into uncertainty after Manuel Ugarte suffered a serious knee injury while playing for Uruguay. The injury occurred during Uruguay's 1-0 defeat to Spain at the 2026 World Cup, with Ugarte being stretchered off after twisting his knee before half-time. The severity of the injury is still being confirmed, but it could potentially rule him out for 9 to 12 months. This is a major setback for the team's squad planning.
