Scott McTominay starts recovery work with Napoli after heart procedure

Summary

Scott McTominay has returned to Napoli and began recovery work in the gym on September 24 following a minor heart procedure earlier this month. The midfielder underwent the procedure to address a mild, benign arrhythmia and has missed his team's last four matches. The decision to proceed with the surgery was made to limit his absence, coinciding with an international break. McTominay aims to be fit for Napoli's Serie A match against Frosinone on October 10 and a Champions League match against Villarreal on October 13.
