Man Utd's new star revealed! Following in the footsteps of a Manchester Evening News reporter, we discover that new signing Ugarte and teammate Lima are like a pair of best friends. They work flawlessly together on the pitch, but also off it. According to the club, the two frequently drink maté tea together, Lima is often driving Ugarte to the training base Carrington.
Since joining United, Ugarte has taken to the game like a fish to water, and his performances in recent weeks have proved enough to warrant a consistent starting berth. He made his fifth start alongside Kirby Menu in the 'Double Red' against Liverpool, and avoided defeat in their first ever partnership, a move that has undoubtedly deepened his weight in the team.
It is worth noting that Manchester United already have eight Spanish-speaking players in their squad, facilitating Ugarte's accelerated integration into Premier League life. Nonetheless, Ugarte set a goal on the first day of his arrival at United to overcome the language barrier by aspiring to communicate in English. Today, his English is good enough to communicate well.
Ugarte not only works hard on his language, but also pours his heart into training. Sources close to the club reveal that he is often one of the last players to leave Carrington and insists on gym workouts after training. This perseverance stems from his childhood soccer rivalries in the park with his father and brother, building a strong physique.
