During the summer transfer window, WEST HAM spent a substantial chunk of money on players they believed may help them challenge for the Champions League.
After David Moyes joined the team recently, the Hammers are now in a strong position in the Premier League, a far cry from their disastrous start to the previous season. Moyes has had a positive impact on the team right away.
There was McTominay for sale over the summer. The Scotland international was being pursued by teams like Newcastle and West Ham, but the potentially £50 million deal fell through.
This season, the 26-year-old found it difficult to contribute to the team after slipping down Erik ten Hag’s hierarchy. But following his outstanding display against Brentford, in which he netted two goals in stoppage time to give United the victory, his worth to the squad was acknowledged once more.
Ten Hag is reportedly out of the running for a January transfer as well.
SHOULD WEST HAM PAY THE £45 MILLION PAYMENT FOR THE MIDFIELDER?
NOT HA!
Even though McTominay is an excellent player, the squad won’t benefit much from him. The team must sign players who have the ability to have a significant influence.
Because signing the Man United midfielder would be extremely costly, they are forced to pass on doing so during the next transfer window. The news that the midfield player would stay at Manchester United will definitely be a blessing for those fans who are against the player joining the squad.
