The 26-year-old joined Man Utd's academy at the age of five and has been with the club ever since.
Having progressed through the youth teams, the Scotland international has gone on to make over 200 first team appearances for the Red Devils, winning his first piece of silverware with them by lifting last season's Carabao Cup.
The midfielder, who has two years remaining on his current contract, started only 10 Premier League matches last season for United following the signings of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen, and will likely find minutes hard to come by at Old Trafford again this season.
The Scot has played just seven Premier League minutes this season, coming from two substitute appearances combined.
With Scotland in a strong position to qualify for just their second major tournament this century, McTominay may decide he wants as many Premier League minutes as possible in preparation for next summer's Euros, which may mean leaving his boyhood club.
Fulham have been linked as the most likely side to make a deadline day move for the midfielder, as Marco Silva's side prepare for the prospect of losing their star midfielder in the form of Joao Palhinha.
The Portugal midfielder is strongly being linked with a move to Bayern Munich on deadline day, leaving Silva looking for a last minute replacement for the 28-year-old.
