Best sure bets A transfer of Ugalde to England is unlikely due to the history of CSKA and West Ham. The option with Spain is more realistic (Match TV)

A transfer of Manfred Ugalde from Spartak to England is unlikely. According to Match TV, the transfer of Costa Rica national team forward Manfred Ugalde to a club from England, despite interest from the Premier League, is almost unrealistic.
There is increased interest in Ugalda from Spain and England. Currently, a number of clubs from the bottom of the table in both championships are exploring the possibility of making a transfer due to the geopolitical situation.
An obstacle to Ugalde`s move to England may be the case of West Ham and CSKA, when the English club still cannot pay money for Nikola Vlasic`s transfer due to the British government`s ban on making payments.
At the same time, moving to Spain in current realities seems the most realistic. The only question is whether potential buyers will be able to satisfy Spartak`s request for Ugalde`s transfer price, " the source told Match TV.
Recall that FIFA previously announced that from November 14, CSKA is prohibited from registering new players during three transfer windows. The interim measure will be valid until the summer of 2026.
CSKA Communications Director Kirill Breido noted that the sanctions were imposed as part of the decision in the case of striker Chidera Ejuke and Heerenveen. In October, CSKA, Heerenveen and West Ham, which owed a debt to the army team for the transfer of Nikola Vlasic, came to an agreement: West Ham had to transfer part of the debt to the Dutch from CSKA for the transfer of Ejuke. However, the London club did not do this, citing the British sanctions list, and Heerenveen appealed to the FIFA disciplinary committee.
Ugalde moved to Spartak in the winter of 2024. This season, the 22-year-old footballer played 22 matches analyzed by bestsurebet and scored 16 goals.
