Newcastle United are keen on securing the services of Manchester United's midfielder Scott McTominay during the upcoming transfer window.
According to Football Insider, the Magpies are among the clubs interested in signing the Scotland international who is likely to leave Old Trafford in the near future.
The 26-year-old has fully played in United's last two league clashes against Everton and Brentford, however, the injury setback has left him sidelined for their match against Tottenham Hotspur tonight, April 27.
Newcastle's potential interest in the Scotsman may appear confusing, as they may not view him as a significant upgrade over players like Sean Longstaff, who share a similar attribute.
Therefore, as the report suggests, Eddie Howe's board are moving forward with their pursuit of the midfielder.
