Scott McTominay wanted by trio of Premier League clubs as midfielder ‘rules out’ transfer that looked nailed on

A trio of Premier League clubs have expressed an interest in signing Scott McTominay from Manchester United.

Speculation over McTominay’s future at Old Trafford has been rife all summer. A number of clubs continue to be linked, including Serie A side Napoli.

In fact, the Italian outfit made contact with United in an attempt to sign the midfielder, according to ESPN, who said the Scotland international was ‘aware’ of Napoli’s interest.

The report, published earlier this week, also claimed United would be looking for a permanent deal rather than a loan as they valued him at between £25 million and £30 million.

But now, it appears McTominay is leaning towards a Premier League stay after ‘giving some thought’ to the idea of playing in Italy.
