Newcastle United are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay during the upcoming transfer window.
Reports suggest that both the Magpies and West Ham are among the clubs looking to secure the services of the Scotland international, who is likely to leave Old Trafford soon.
McTominay, who is currently 26 years old and under contract until 2025, has expressed his desire to leave this summer due to a lack of playing time compared to last season, as per Football Insider.
Despite starting only four Premier League matches since September, he is seen as a talented midfielder who could be a regular starter for a lower-ranked team.
However, Newcastle’s interest in McTominay may be puzzling, as they may not consider him a significant improvement over players like Sean Longstaff, who has displayed similar abilities.
