Napoli prepares long‑term contract for midfielder Scott McTominay
Napoli, under new coach Massimiliano Allegri, is set to offer Scottish midfielder Scott McTominay a renewed contract that would extend his stay until 2030 and raise his salary to around €5 million per season. Club officials say the renewal is a mutual priority and have dismissed media speculation linking McTominay with Real Madrid, describing such reports as unfounded. Allegri has positioned McTominay as the central figure in a 4‑3‑3 system, emphasizing his physical presence and ability to drive the team’s attacking play. The club’s broader market strategy, outlined by analysts such as Salvatore Bagni and Ciro Venerato, highlights that Napoli has already secured its core squad and will focus on targeted signings to fill remaining gaps, including a central defender and a dynamic midfielder. Commentary from former players and journalists underscores Allegri’s strong group management and the club’s ambition to compete for Serie A and European titles.
The renewal plan reflects Napoli’s intent to maintain continuity while strengthening the squad ahead of the next season, with the club’s leadership confident that McTominay will remain a key pillar of their project.
