Man United, Spurs and Arsenal Eye Napoli’s McTominay as Summer Switch Seen as More Likely Than January

His surge under Antonio Conte has made him a high-value target for a potential return to England.

Overview

  • Manchester United are reported to be exploring a move to re-sign Scott McTominay after his breakout at Napoli.
  • Tottenham, Arsenal and Newcastle are also tracking the 29-year-old, with Spurs seeking goals and physical presence from midfield and Arsenal viewing him as depth.
  • Reports indicate Napoli would consider talks only around £60m, are opposed to a mid-season sale, and have the player under contract until 2028.
  • McTominay has been credited with driving Napoli’s title win and was widely reported as Serie A’s Player of the Year, adding further goals and assists this season.
  • Agent-sourced estimates suggest roughly a 70% chance of a summer move versus 30% in January, while accounts of ‘suffocating’ fan attention contrast with the player’s public praise of life in Naples.
