“The Glazers want around £6-7 billion to sell Man United and both the Qatari group and Ineos group are really interested after talks last week and last few days were very positive. Now, it is time to make a new proposal and enter into a crucial moment of the process. So, keep an eye on the Manchester United situation in the next days and weeks because now we enter into crucial moments of the conversation.”

McTominay is still an important player for United, but he is likely to find game time increasingly harder to find as Ten Hag looks to further strengthen his midfield this summer.
