Manchester United ‘REJECT £21m bid for Scott McTominay from European giants’ – with Erik ten Hag’s side ‘looking for a fee in excess of £25m to let the Scottish midfielder leave this summer’

Manchester United have reportedly received a proposal that would see Scott McTominay leave the club this summer.

The 27-year-old has been repeatedly linked with a move away from Old Trafford this summer with the transfer deadline less than one week away.

Earlier this week, Napoli enquired about potentially bringing in the Scotland international on loan but were rebuffed by United who are understood to only want to entertain a permanent exit.

According to a report from journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Serie A club have maintained their interest in signing McTominay but are yet to meet United’s valuation.

Antonio Conte‘s side are said to have tabled a proposal worth £21m, but United are standing firm and are looking a fee in excess of £25m.

However, the club are said to be determined to secure a fee in excess of £25m for the academy graduate

McTominay’s current deal at Old Trafford is set to expire at the end of the season. 

Fulham had also shown an interest in McTominay but are now believed to be out of the race after their completing their signing of Sander Berge from Burnley earlier this week.

McTominay had looked set to depart his boyhood club last summer, with then-West Ham boss David Moyes reportedly keen on signing his compatriot.

Ultimately though, the deal was not completed and the midfielder remained at United for Erik ten Hag’s second season at the club.

Despite being limited to just 18 Premier League starts throughout the campaign the Scotland international managed a career-best seven league goals, including vital winners against Brentford and Aston Villa.

The midfielder also featured in every game of United’s run to the final of the FA Cup last season, starting in the final as they defeated Manchester City 2-1 at Wembley.

Antonio Conte is said to be a keen admirer of the star who scored 10 goals…
