The end of McSauce at United?

Manchester United have agreed a deal with European giants for Scott McTominay.

The club have agreed a €30m (£25m) deal in principle with Italian side Napoli according to reports from David Ornstein.

The deal includes a sell on clause and will help United to manage Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations.

The Scot will be considered as pure profit as an academy product of Manchester United.

Ornstein also reported that the sale of McTominay could be vital in the purchase of Manuel Ugarte from PSG.

McTominay made his first appearance for United on 7 May 2017 against Arsenal in the Premier League.

The 27-year-old has gone on to play 255 times for his boyhood club, scoring 29 goals and assisting eight.

The midfielder has become infamous for his important goals, often scoring equalisers and match winners as well as his passionate approach to football.

Representing Scotland, McTominay has played 52 times for his nation scoring nine goals, two of which game against Spain.

McTominay has won one FA Cup and one League Cup during his seven years in the first team.
