Pros

Ugarte is a tenacious and combative defensive midfielder, excelling at breaking up play and disrupting the opposition’s rhythm.

His tackling ability is excellent, both in one-on-one situations and when tracking runners from midfield.

He shows high levels of aggression and intensity, constantly pressing opponents and forcing turnovers.

His stamina is very good, allowing him to cover a lot of ground and remain active throughout the match.

He has decent passing ability under pressure and plays safe, short passes to maintain possession and transition the ball effectively.

Physically, he is strong and resilient, able to stand up to contact and engage in midfield duels.

Cons

His 3-star skill move limits his flair and versatility in attack, especially in tight spaces.

His attacking contributions are minimal, offering little in terms of goal threat or creative output.

While solid in possession, his long passing and vision aren't as refined as other elite CDMs.

Alternatives

Final Verdict

Manuel Ugarte is a traditional ball-winning defensive midfielder, ideal for teams seeking midfield solidity and aggressive ball recovery. Although he lacks offensive flair and advanced passing, his strength, tackling, and work rate make him a reliable shield in front of the defense.
