West Ham have had a bid rejected for Manchester United ace Scott McTominay.
According to Sky Sports, the £30 million bid submitted to Manchester United for Scott McTominay in the summer transfer window was a final take it or leave it offer from West Ham.

The 26-year-old Man United midfielder has been linked with the East London outfit, and a West Ham bid for the Scot has been mooted for quite some time now.
Declan Rice left the London Stadium to join Arsenal last month, so it will be vital for David Moyes to sign a top-class box-to-box type midfielder.
The signing of Edson Alvarez appears to be done, and bringing someone else in like McTominay would complete our midfield. However, it appears as though there’s a big problem…
What West Ham will actually have to pay for Scott McTominay after rejected £30 million bid
The Hammers have lodged a £30 million bid for the Scotland international, but Man United are holding out for close to £45 million, according to Sky Sports.
Perhaps the two clubs will meet in the middle – somewhere around £35-38 million.
I actually think that the 26-year-old will be a superb addition for West Ham this summer.
The Man United midfielder is incredibly strong in the tackle, quick along the ground and possesses bundles of energy and athleticism.
He plays with real aggression and his fighting spirit would be a major boost for us after some high profile recent exits.
And if Scott McTominay joins West Ham for around £35 million I think that will be good business.
