MAN UTD TRANSFER NEWS LIVE: All the latest deals and rumours from Old Trafford
McTominay had his best ever goalscoring season last term when he netted 10 time across all competitions for United.
But with just one year, and the option for a 12 month extension, remaining on the Scot’s deal at Old Trafford, clubs are sniffing around.
West Ham came knocking for the midfielder last summer, but saw their £30m bid rejected by execs at United.
And it’s been claimed that Fulham‘s offer this summer falls short of that offered by the Hammers last year.
McTominay isn’t short of suitors though, with one European heavyweight also eyeing a swoop for the 52-time Scotland international.
Turkish giants Galatasaray are in discussions over a potential move for the star and the club’s vice-chairman Ibrahim Hatipoglu confirmed their negotiations last week.
He said: “McTominay’s transfer fee is being discussed”, adding that “negotiations are ongoing”.
United have already started their incoming business this summer as the new reign under Sir Jim Ratcliffe begins.

Dutch striker Joshua Zirkzee completed a £42million switch to Old Trafford on Sunday, penning a five-year contract.
While the forward will soon be joined by another new arrival for the same fee, with United having beaten off European champs Real Madrid to land Leny Yoro from Lille.
The French centre-half, 18, is expected to complete a medical at Carrington on Thursday and put pen to paper on a five-year contract himself.
Elsewhere rumours continue to swirl about other potential exits from the Red Devils camp.
It’s been suggested that Mason Greenwood is on the brink of joining French club Marseille.
While the Mail have reported that West Ham are weighing up a bid in the region of £15m for Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
