McTominay’s Future Unclear: Three Premier League Clubs Join Chase for Manchester United Midfielder
Scott McTominay’s future at Manchester United remains a topic of debate, with three Premier League clubs reportedly showing interest in acquiring the Scotland international.
McTominay, who has been an integral part of Erik ten Hag’s squad, has been heavily linked with a move away from Old Trafford. His impressive performances last season, including 10 goals in 43 appearances, have caught the attention of several top-tier clubs.
According to recent reports, Napoli made contact with United about a potential transfer, but it’s now believed that McTominay is leaning towards staying in the Premier League. The 27-year-old is understood to have given some thought to playing in Italy, but it appears his priority is to remain in England.
Premier League Interest Builds
Fulham, Crystal Palace, and Brighton are the three clubs believed to be tracking McTominay’s situation. The Cottagers were previously keen to sign him, but United turned down their £20 million bid.
With plenty of cash to spend following Michael Olise’s departure to Bayern Munich, Palace are now seen as one of the front-runners for McTominay’s signature. Meanwhile, Brighton are looking to add more depth to their midfield and may view McTominay as an upgrade.
Ten Hag Wants McTominay to Stay
United boss Erik ten Hag is desperate to keep McTominay at the club. He praised the midfielder’s contributions last season and emphasized the importance of retaining his services.
"We want to keep him because he is a very important player for our squad," Ten Hag said. "What he can contribute, as we saw last season, he could play in a more advanced role and he is a highly interesting player for our team."
With McTominay seemingly open to staying in the Premier League, it remains to be seen whether United can convince him to reject offers from other clubs. One thing is certain, though: the midfielder’s future is generating a lot of excitement in the transfer window.
