MANCHESTER UNITED will demand at least £50MILLION before considering selling Scott McTominay this summer.
Newcastle are one of a host of clubs who are big admirers of the Scottish midfielder — who has been at Old Trafford since he was a kid.
But United bosses have made it clear to both the player and would-be suitors that he is still a valuable member of the squad and they will not be pressured into a sale.
McTominay, 26, is under contract for another two years, with the club also having the option to extend by 12 months beyond that.
Although United are looking to raise transfer funds, they are in no rush to cash in on the man whose two goals gave Scotland a famous win over Spain.
McTominay, who netted the opener against Everton, is convinced he can become a Red Devils regular and has recently held productive talks with manager Erik ten Hag about his future.
