Scott McTominay may leave Napoli over €8m wage demands

Summary

Scott McTominay is likely to depart Napoli at the end of the season, with the club considering a sale to avoid losing him for free. McTominay, who turns 30 in December, is seeking around €8m annually, a figure Napoli's president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, finds excessive. With his current contract expiring in 2028, next summer presents the final opportunity for Napoli to secure a transfer fee, estimated between €25m and €30m. Interest has been recorded from several clubs, including Manchester United and Aston Villa, highlighting a possible return to the Premier League.
