Man United ‘close in’ on top transfer target as 27-year-old also close to departure



Man United have allegedly agreed a fee of around £25.4m with Napoli for McTominay, with the Scotland international now close to leaving the club.

The Red Devils rejected at least one offer from Fulham for McTominay earlier this summer, with the club unwilling to sell him for under their valuation.

However, with Napoli seemingly agreeing to meet the £25.4m asking price, a deal is proceeding, with McTominay now set to enter into discussions with the Serie A outfit over personal terms.


The 27-year-old was used off the bench in Saturday’s Premier League clash with Brighton & Hove Albion, and Man United head coach Erik ten Hag said earlier this summer that he wants the Scot to stay at Old Trafford.

However, a permanent exit would count as pure profit under the Premier League’s rules surrounding Profit and Sustainability, and as mentioned, it will allow them to secure a permanent deal for Ugarte.
