Man United are willing to retain McTominay's services, but they are open to selling the midfielder if the price is right.

The 20-time English champions have valued Scotland international at around £45m, and they believe he could be their biggest sale of the summer.

McTomninay, who progressed through the academy ranks at Man United, is under contract until June 2025 with an option to extend by a further 12 months.

The Scotsman has made 209 appearances for the club, but he dropped down the pecking order last season following the arrival of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen.

As a result, he had to settle for just 16 starts in 39 games across all competitions, chipping in with three goals and one assist.

McTominay is not the only Man United midfielder that faces an uncertain future, with Fred and Donny van de Beek believed to heading towards the exit door.

While it remains to be seen whether West Ham will return will an improved bid, the Hammers are on the verge of bolstering their midfield options with the addition of Edson Alvarez.

They have reached an agreement in principle with Ajax, which will see them pay £32m up front plus an additional £2m in performance-related add-ons.
