Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ugarte.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 73, 24th of 55 of the 55 defensive midfielders in the Premier League. At 25 Ugarte is in his prime years, and a market index of 87.7 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Manchester United finished 3rd of 20 · an upper-table side
7.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 7.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 99/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 26.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 73.1, Ugarte carries the 24th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Premier League of 55. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (7.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
