Scott McTominay medical recovery and contract status

Overview

Napoli midfielder Scott McTominay has returned to availability following a successful Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) procedure to correct a benign arrhythmia. The surgery, performed on September 8 at Spire Manchester Hospital, allowed the player to recover near his family in the United Kingdom.

Following a period of rest and individual training to manage post-operative anticoagulant therapy, McTominay has resumed pitch training with the squad. Manager Massimiliano Allegri has maintained a cautious reintegration plan, noting that the midfielder may initially feature for only “20 or 30 minutes” to regain match fitness.

In recent Serie A action, McTominay played a pivotal role in a 3-3 draw against Roma at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. After Frank Anguissa opened the scoring with an acrobatic strike in the 28th minute, McTominay doubled the lead with a header in the 48th minute. Although Matías Soulé and Leonardo Balerdi scored to bring Roma level, McTominay appeared to have secured a victory with a strike in the 83rd minute. However, Balerdi scored an 89th-minute equalizer to end the match in a draw. Following the result, Allegri was sent off after expressing frustration regarding officiating decisions.

Parallel to his physical recovery, McTominay’s professional future remains uncertain due to a contract renewal stalemate. While Napoli has expressed interest in extending his deal to 2030, a significant gap remains between the player's salary demands and the club's structure. This impasse has intensified transfer speculation, with reports indicating that Manchester United and Aston Villa are interested in his services. Napoli is reportedly prepared to set an asking price between €25m and €30m should a renewal fail.
