According to a report by Caught Offside, Scott McTominay is the subject of interest from Manchester United. The Red Devils are scouring the market for a versatile midfielder and have set their sights on the Scottish international. Meanwhile, the Napoli talisman is also a target for Barcelona, Tottenham Hotspur, and Newcastle United, with the Serie A champions demanding €50 million to part ways with him.
Scott McTominay has transformed his career since joining Napoli from Manchester United last year. The 28-year-old took no time to land on his feet at the Serie A club, and his game-changing displays helped the Partenopei win the league title in the 2024/25 season. That also earned the Scotsman individual plaudits, including Serie A MVP and 18th place in the 2025 Ballon d’Or list.
The Scottish international has been solid thus far in the 2025/26 season, chipping in with four goals and one assist in 14 appearances across all competitions. Meanwhile, McTominay’s exploits have not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs. Barcelona, Tottenham, Manchester United, and Newcastle United are among the prospective suitors vying for his signature.
Barcelona will dip into the market for a a versatile midfielder next year, even though they have tied Frenkie de Jong to a new contract. However, the need to raise funds for signings has compelled the Blaugrana to consider cashing in on a homegrown player. So, McTominay and his productivity can be a solid addition to the Barcelona squad.
Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur’s interest in Scott McTominay makes sense. The Lilywhites are scouring the market for a versatile midfielder heading into the next two transfer windows. Thomas Frank can do with more firepower from the middle of the park, and the former Manchester United star is a viable target for the North London club.
As for Manchester United, McTominay’s versatility means he can slot in as a central midfielder or an attacking midfielder behind the striker in Ruben Amorim’s system. So, Manchester United’s interest is understandable. Meanwhile, Newcastle United must add more productivity from the midfielders, and the 28-year-old Scot’s qualities make him an appealing target.
The Napoli talisman will not cost a bomb next year despite his exploits for the Partenopei.
