Jose Mourinho made up his own award to give to Scott McTominay in a memorable moment in 2018.
And his strides forward were recognised in a very creative way by Mourinho.Yet Mourinho got up on stage and proceeded to name McTominay as his 'Manager's Player of the Year' - an award straight out of Sunday League."The dream of every boy that arrives in the club is to play for the first team," he said."The next dream is to play big matches in the Champions League and to play for the national team.
"This player did everything in five or six months so my player of the year has to be Scott McTominay." Mourinho was sacked later that year and replaced by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, though McTominay revealed he was still in contract with the Portuguese and owes a lot to him for giving him the opportunity.McTominay joined United at the age of five and came through the ranks before going on to make 255 appearances for his boyhood club.
His story with the Red Devils is ending though, with the 27-year-old poised to sign for Serie A side Napoli for around £25 million.
