“It’s not easy”: Napoli director admits to problem over ex-Man United man Scott McTominay’s contract

Napoli and former Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay have encountered obstacles in ongoing contract extension negotiations. According to Corriere dello Sport, the 29-year-old Scotland international is seeking a new deal running through 2030 worth between €8 million and €9 million per season. Napoli considers that valuation too high, though sporting director Giovanni Manna confirmed the club is still attempting to negotiate an agreement.

Negotiations were previously paused after McTominay underwent a minor heart procedure, but discussions are expected to resume following his return to training on grass. Both sides reportedly share a mutual desire to continue together, yet common ground must be reached regarding financial conditions.
