Premier League team considering McTominay leaves as Scotland midfielder thrives for Manchester United

In order to replace Joao Palhinha, Fulham is thinking about signing Scott McTominay in the upcoming January transfer window.

If Palhinha moves to Bayern Munich at that time, according to Fichajes, the Cottagers might make a move for the Manchester United midfielder. The 26-year-old academy product has struggled to fit into Erik ten Hag’s team and has recently been put available for transfer after a failed bid from West Ham.

Man Utd was willing to sell McTominay during the summer transfer season and got numerous inquiries from Premier League clubs, but he chose to stay. Even Bayern Munich was among the potential buyers, and they may have looked at getting him.

Palhinha looked set to join Bayern

However, the champions of Paris Saint-Germain soon turned their attention to Fulham’s Palhinha, even if the deal failed because the German transfer window was prematurely closed.

However, Bayern is anticipated to step up their attempts in January to recruit the 28-year-old Portuguese midfielder.

Fulham is aware of Palhinha’s desire to join Bayern in January even though the international break is still in effect. McTominay, who is still performing admirably for Scotland in the Euro Qualifiers but is viewed as surplus to needs at Manchester United, is a player in whom manager Marco Silva is interested in rekindling the club’s interest.

Following McTominay’s recent scoring prowess for Scotland, which included ranking among the best scorers in the Euro 2024 qualifying round, there has been a call for Man Utd to give him more playing time.

In fact, McTominay was a target for Fulham throughout the summer, and rumors suggest that the player himself may have refused a transfer.

However, McTominay will fetch around £40 million from Manchester United, who has a definite price in mind for him.
