The real reason for Scott McTominay's absence is revealed and makes Ten Hag smile

While it seems that Scott McTominay was ready to take advantage of one of the last chances that he could actually have with the red devils, it now seems that there is a reason for the player to miss it.

The fact is that Scott McTominay was ready to show to Erik ten Hag that he was able to play with the Manchester United team for the next season, and while the last games of the preseason was the perfect chance to do just that, it seems that there is a really important reason for the midfielder to miss both of the games, and Ten Hag is happy with the reason.

Now that the preseason is over and the Manchester United team is getting ready to face the first game of the preseason, it now has been reported by “The Daily Mail” that the reason that forced Scott McTominay to miss both games is due to the fact that the red devils did not wanted to risk the player to get injured and stop the deal that would get him out.

The source has also reported that Scott McTominay is now almost ready to leave the Manchester United team in this transfer window, and the fact is that while the player wanted to stay with the team for the next season, the deal that would send him away to the West Ham team has been reported to be now really close to happen in the next few hours.
