West Ham are reportedly interested in Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay – and some of the club’s supporters on Twitter have expressed their concern about the speculation.

According to Sky Sports, the Hammers have asked about the availability of the 22-year-old.

The report details that Manchester United are already chasing West Ham defender Issa Diop and are willing to offer £45million plus a player to get him.

It is understood that Manuel Pellegrini’s team will hold talks with Diop’s representatives next week about his future at the London Stadium, but he’s believed to be happy where he is.

West Ham have made an enquiry about McTominay and it will be intriguing to see the response from Old Trafford officials.

He has come through the youth ranks with the Red Devils and started to become a regular with the senior squad during the last 12 months.

The defensive midfielder is a touch tackler that helps protect the back four and he stepped in well when needed last season.

McTominay played in 22 first-team games last season, which included the famous 3-1 win away to Paris Saint-Germain in the last-16 of the Champions League.

But a selection of West Ham fans have claimed on social media they wouldn’t like to see him join them.

It seems they are happy with options such as Declan Rice and skipper Mark Noble in the midfield anchor role.
