Napoli struggles with Scott McTominay's contract renewal discussions

Summary

Napoli faces difficulties in renewing Scott McTominay's contract as negotiations stagnate. McTominay, a former Manchester United player, returned to training on September 26 after a minor heart procedure. He seeks a contract extension until 2030 with a salary of €8-9 million per season, but the club finds this amount excessive. Giovanni Manna, Napoli's sporting director, acknowledged the challenge of reaching an agreement, though both sides express a desire to continue their partnership. Talks are expected to resume following McTominay's recovery.
