Man United deny McTominay buy-back talk

Manchester United have played down reports of a £70 million move to re-sign Scott McTominay, with club sources telling TEAMtalk the midfielder hasn’t even been discussed internally. A Spanish outlet claimed United were weighing a shock bid and that Napoli might accept about €80 m, but Old Trafford insists there’s no substance to it.

McTominay, 29, left for Napoli in 2024 and has thrived—winning Serie A MVP, making the league’s Team of the Year, and captaining Scotland’s run to the World Cup finals. His profile is higher than ever, which has fueled transfer chatter.

United, however, have distanced themselves from the story, calling the buy-back claims wide of the mark.
