Manchester United are ready to hand midfielder Scott McTominay a new contract, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe impressed by his performances.
Per
the Daily Star, new
co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS have been impressed by McTominay's
performances and believe that the Scotland international can be a key player
for the future and are willing to hand him both a new deal and a pay rise. This
season, McTominay has scored seven league goals in 25 games.
United
have the option to extend McTominay's current £60,000-per-week deal by a
further year but the report claims he can expect to double his money and extend
his stay as a result. There had been interest from West Ham and Newcastle in
securing his signature but United are keen to tie him down.
The
Scotland star is a lifelong United fan and has made 243 appearances for the
club in total. In that time, he has netted 28 goals and provided eight assists,
while also winning 41 caps for his country.
McTominay
could next be in action against Brentford when the Premier League returns on
Saturday. They are currently sixth in the table.
