Scott McTominay: From key player to surplus to requirements at MU
Besides signing new stars, MU is also actively overhauling its squad. One of the names rumored to be leaving Old Trafford is Scott McTominay.
McTominay is on his way out of Old Trafford.
In recent seasons, Scott McTominay has always been an important part of the Manchester United squad. However, with the Red Devils signing other quality central midfielders such as Casemiro and Mason Mount, McTominay's position has been seriously threatened.
The inability to secure a stable place in the starting lineup has left McTominay facing an uncertain future at Old Trafford. Numerous sources indicate that the Scottish midfielder is being pursued by several major clubs in the Premier League and Serie A.
The race for signatures is heating up.
Currently, at least three Premier League teams are very interested in McTominay: Fulham, Crystal Palace, and Brighton. All three teams are looking for a powerful and ball-winning central midfielder to strengthen their midfield.
Fulham were the first to approach Manchester United. However, two offers from "The Cottagers" were rejected by "The Red Devils" who deemed the price too high. Crystal Palace are also keen to sign McTominay. With the sale of several players this summer, "The Eagles" have plenty of money to spend.
In addition, Brighton is also a formidable opponent in the race to sign McTominay. Coach De Zerbi's team plays a very attractive style of football and they need a midfielder like McTominay to strengthen their midfield.
Not only Premier League teams, but also Napoli in Serie A are very interested in McTominay. However, Napoli's loan offer was rejected by Manchester United.
What does the future hold for McTominay?
According to The Sun, Manchester United are valuing McTominay at £35 million. This is a fairly high price, but given what McTominay has shown, it is also a reasonable price.
Given what's happening, it seems McTominay's future looks very bright. The Scottish midfielder shouldn't have any difficulty finding a new club. However, which team will be McTominay's final destination remains a mystery.
