Manchester United are hoping that West Ham will make a move for Scott McTominay in the upcoming summer transfer window, as they look to raise £100m through player sales to fund their own transfer plans. According to iNews, the club is considering selling some academy players to reach their financial target.
While Mason Greenwood is also on the chopping block, McTominay is seen as a player who could be replaced and United are hopeful that West Ham will revisit their interest in him after a failed bid last year.
However, West Ham might not necessarily need McTominay in their squad. Although he has had a productive season with United, his playing style might be better suited to David Moyes’ tactics rather than Erik Ten Hag’s. Despite his physical attributes, McTominay is considered a less refined version of Tomas Soucek and the Hammers could find better options in the European market for a more cost-effective price.
In the end, it might not be the best move for West Ham to pursue McTominay, especially considering that most fans are hoping for Moyes to bring in different players in the summer. The fact that United are willing to part ways with him suggests that he may not be the ideal fit for the Irons.
