🚨BREAKING: Tottenham are plotting £40m late move to sign ‘special’ Manchester United player.

Tottenham Hotspur have now identified a player from one of their Premier League rivals as a potential opportunity this summer.

It has been a relatively slow start to the market for Ange Postecoglou‘s side when it comes to arrivals.

Archie Gray has been the only player to land at Tottenham on a permanent deal so far with Timo Werner marking the other addition.

Of course, January signing Lucas Bergvall has also joined up with the squad after his return to Sweden on loan for the remainder of the 2023/24 campaign.

Despite seeing two new midfielders land, Postecoglou remains keen to add in that department an is now plotting a move for a player from Manchester United.

Over the summer window, Spurs have been strongly linked with a potential swoop for Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher.

However, that move does not seem to be progressing despite his ongoing contract debacle.

Pre-season is now up and running for Spurs and Postecoglou is going to be looking for additions to be made before they jet off for their Asian tour.

If a deal for Gallagher is looking near impossible to pull off, Spurs will have no issue in turning their attention elsewhere.

According to The Sun, Spurs are now plotting a move for the United midfielder Scott McTominay.

The Scotsman is believed to be a target for Premier League side Fulham already, but Tottenham could now make their move.

It is claimed the Red Devils are looking for a fee of no less than £40m for the 27-year-old this summer – despite demanding £30m last summer.

However, with interested also coming from Galatasaray, Erik ten Hag is believed to be keen to keep McTominay around this summer.

McTominay has not exactly established himself as a first team starter under Ten Hag – who has now had his contract extended at Old Trafford.

However, he has shown signs of his ability at United having netted 10 goals and provided three assists across all competitions last season.

His former manager Jose Mourinho had some big words to say about him during their time together at the Theatre of Dreams.

“He’s a special character, a special personality that a team in a negative moment needs. Do my other players have that mentality? Not all of them. Everybody is a different person,” said Mourinho back in 2018.

“Scott McTominay is a kid with a special character, very humble, aggressive in a positive way, brave, he’s a special kid.”
