Everton FC is reportedly considering a late transfer move for Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay, valued at £25 million. Despite recent inactivity in the transfer market, Everton remains interested in strengthening their squad before the window closes.

According to The Athletic, Everton’s Director of Football, Kevin Thelwell, may attempt a “creative” move to sign McTominay, who has been a long-term target for the club. With Everton having already spent £31 million this summer and generated £70 million from player sales, the finances appear to be available for the transfer.

McTominay’s situation at Manchester United remains uncertain, with Fulham and Galatasaray having already expressed interest in the Scotland international. However, Everton’s potential move could offer McTominay a Premier League opportunity, albeit with the club needing to find an innovative solution due to their limited funds.

The signing of McTominay would significantly enhance Everton’s midfield, bringing energy, intelligence, and goal-scoring ability to the team. As the transfer window nears its close, Everton fans await with bated breath to see if the club can secure this key target.
