Napoli's McTominay contract talks continue
Overview
SSC Napoli announced on 5 July 2026 that Scott McTominay had signed a new deal keeping him at the club until 2030, with a salary boost that placed him among the highest‑paid players. A week later, on 12 July, the club said negotiations were still ongoing to further adjust his remuneration as the midfielder returned from a post‑World Cup break. Manager Massimiliano Allegri stressed McTominay’s central role in Napoli’s project and the club’s intention to keep him among the squad’s top earners, while rejecting external offers despite interest from Real Madrid and other suitors.
On 30 July, Napoli confirmed that a renewed contract is being prepared, extending McTominay’s stay to 2030 with a salary of roughly €5 million per season. Club officials dismissed recent media speculation linking the player with Real Madrid as unfounded. Allegri highlighted the midfielder’s importance in a 4‑3‑3 system, citing his physical presence and ability to drive attacking play. The renewal is part of a broader strategy that has already secured the core squad and will focus on targeted signings for a central defender and a dynamic midfielder, underscoring Napoli’s ambition to compete for Serie A and European titles while maintaining continuity around McTominay.
