Limited option early Ugarte came off the bench in both of the first two Premier League matches.

Impact Ugarte has started the opening two matches of the season on the bench, clearly behind Casemiro in the pecking order. The midfielder seems to have moved ahead of Kobbe Mainoo in the XI, as both started during Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash with Grimsby Town. Ugarte will likely rotate with Casemiro as the schedule gets busier, though United don't have European competition to worry about.

JULY 28, 2025 • BBC.CO.UK

Makes 22 starts in debut season Ugarte appeared in 29 games (22 starts) for Manchester United in the Premier League, recording one goal, two assists, 77 tackles, 27 interceptions and 15 clearances. He also record...

Impact Ugarte needed a bit of time to adjust to the pace and intensity of the Premier League, but he was a regular in midfield once he did, especially after the midseason arrival of Ruben Amorim, who was his previous head coach at Sporting CP, to the bench. Ugarte figures to remain a regular for Manchester United for years to come, though it's unclear who will patrol central midfield next to him. When it comes to his fantasy upside, he might bag the occasional goal contribution here and there, but he's far more likely to deliver value via defensive stats rather than attacking numbers.

Impact The midfielder gave Man United some hope with his assist late in stoppage time, though it ultimately wasn't enough to get something out of the match. Ugarte should be a factor off the bench against Athletic in UEL action Thursday.
