McTominay in a surprise move to Bayern Munich

According to F. Romano, Bayern Munich has offered an undisclosed lucrative for McTominay which the Glazers family are highly interested desbite the player contributing positively to the club. His decision is based on lack of playing time at the club.

Fabrizio Romano has provided an exclusive update on the situation of Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay after his superb performance off the bench yesterday to score two goals in a dramatic victory over Brentford.

Writing exclusively for the Daily Briefing, Romano explained that Man Utd could’ve sold the Scotland international over the summer, but the player’s preference was always to stay at Old Trafford.

McTominay was the subject of interest from Fulham and West Ham, according to Romano, while Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel is also known to be an admirer of the 26-year-old.

Still, it seems Bayern’s interest never went anywhere particularly advanced or concrete, though it will now be interesting to see what happens to McTominay in the weeks and months ahead.

Romano has suggested that McTominay’s heroics for United yesterday could end up being significant, though we’d have to wait and see what his situation is once the transfer window re-opens in January.

“What an impact we saw from Scott McTominay yesterday as he came off the bench to score twice in stoppage time for Manchester United, handing Erik ten Hag’s side an important 2-1 win over Brentford,” Romano wrote.

“It’s not been an entirely easy season for McTominay with so much competition in United’s midfield now, and we know he had chances to leave Old Trafford in the summer. There was interest from West Ham, and also Fulham were pushing in the final days of the summer transfer window, but McTominay only wanted to stay at United.

“Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel is also a big admirer of McTominay, as I previously revealed, but there was no concrete approach there, he’s just a player Bayern and Tuchel appreciate. Let’s see what happens with McTominay now, but a performance like this, with two hugely important goals, could be key for his confidence.

“As I said, he wanted to stay at United this summer, and I think if he plays with the same confidence he does with Scotland for United, then he can be an important player for the Red Devils.”

Manchester United’s current top scorer and midfield anchorman, Casemiro, will miss three Champions League fixtures after his dismissal at Old Trafford on Tuesday night.

The Brazilian was shown a straight red card for his reckless tackle on former Napoli and Belgium international, Dries Mertens, in an attempt to save Onana’s blushes.

Andre Onana conceded three cheap goals on Tuesday night in the Champions League against Galatasaray and his displaced pass was what resulted to Casemiro’s dismissal.

The Red Devils are winless in two UCL fixtures this term and they currently face an uphill battle in reaching the knockout phase of this year’s Champions League tournament.

Casemiro will be unavailable for selection in Man United’s next three Champions League outings and we are going to take a quick look at those fixtures.

Below are the three Champions League matches Casemiro is set to miss for Man United due to suspension.
