Paris St-Germain have signed midfielder Manuel Ugarte from Sporting Lisbon for a reported 60 million euros (£51.1m).

The 22-year-old Uruguay international has signed a five-year contract which will keep him at the Parc des Princes until June 2028.

Chelsea, Tottenham and Liverpool had been linked with a move for the player.

"I am sincerely very happy to be able to make this big step in my career, at such a huge club. I will give everything for PSG," Ugarte said.

Ugarte, who has been capped eight times by Uruguay, becomes new PSG boss Luis Enrique's third g since he was unveiled as successor to Christophe Galtier on 5 July.

The Ligue 1 champions have signed attacking midfielder Marco Asensio and defender Milan Skriniar on free transfers after they left Real Madrid and Inter Milan respectively.
