      However, his career is supposedly at a “crossroads” with concern over his game time with Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, Marcel Sabitzer and Fred all competing for places.
      McTominay has only started 14 games this season, just eight of which have come in the Premier League.
      Man Utd are supposedly proud of the progress the player has made since joining the club when he was just five-years-old and there is sensitivity towards getting rid of him.

      Since then, the Bartman has enhanced his reputation by claiming the first-team spot at the Belgian side and also being called up by Holland for their Euro 2024 qualifiers against France and Gibraltar.
      Liverpool are also very keen on Verbruggen — as we first revealed in February — but that would be as a long-term replacement for current Kop No 1 Alisson, with no guarantee of game time.
      Kompany’s runaway Championship leaders could offer Premier League football and a step up the ladder immediately, which could be a huge temptation.
      Anderlecht want around £15million for Verbruggen, which could turn out to be a shrewd investment.

      Kompany’s former Manchester City team-mate Arijanet Muric has been the Clarets’ first choice stopper this term.
      He has made 36 Championship appearances, keeping 16 clean sheets.
      In addition to Burnley and Liverpool, Manchester United are reportedly interested in Verbruggen.
