I don't know why but I have a feeling that if we sign Frenkie De Jong, that Ten Hag will try to partner him with McTominay and try to develop Mctominay. His physical attributes/ability to cover the ground and get stuck in definitely fits, he's not the best positionally but can be improved and De Jong doesn't need a sitting midfielder, but a defensive box to box next to him which is what McTominay is. Of course, the lack of on ball ability might be his downfall, but who knows. Wouldn't be entirely surprised given the lack of rumors with any DMs.
