Napoli Seal Deal with Manchester United for Scott McTominay

€30m Fee Agreed, With Significant Sell-on Clause

Napoli have made a significant coup in the transfer market, agreeing a fee with Manchester United for highly-rated midfielder Scott McTominay. The Italian club will pay around €30 million for the Scotland international, with a substantial sell-on clause also part of the deal.

Personal Terms to Be Agreed

With the fee now out of the way, the ball is in McTominay’s court to agree personal terms with Napoli. If all goes smoothly, the 24-year-old midfielder is expected to complete the move to the Stadio San Paolo, bringing an end to his four-year spell at Old Trafford.

McTominay’s Manchester United Legacy

During his time at Manchester United, McTominay established himself as a versatile and energetic midfielder, capable of playing in a variety of positions. He made his debut in 2017 and has since gone on to make over 100 appearances for the club, scoring 6 goals. His performances earned him a new contract in 2019, extending his stay at the club until 2025.

Napoli Strengthen Midfield

The acquisition of McTominay represents a significant coup for Napoli, who are looking to strengthen their midfield options for the upcoming season. The midfielder’s arrival is expected to provide a major boost to Luciano Spalletti’s team, who finished fourth in Serie A last season.

Sell-on Clause

As part of the deal, Manchester United will retain a significant percentage of any potential profit Napoli make if they were to sell McTominay in the future. This sell-on clause is designed to provide the Red Devils with some form of compensation for their star midfielder, ensuring they benefit financially from his potential development at Napoli.

What Next for McTominay?

With the transfer agreement in place, McTominay will now focus on finalizing personal terms with Napoli. If all goes smoothly, he will complete the move and join his new teammates for the start of the new season. This will mark the start of a new chapter in his career, with Napoli hoping he can bring the same level of energy and quality he exhibited during his time at Manchester United.
