Napoli's transfer market would be willing to negotiate the departure of Scott McTominay, a 29-year-old Scottish midfielder, for an amount close to €30 million next summer. According to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, difficulties in closing his renewal have opened the door to a possible exit, with Manchester United, Aston Villa, and Real Madrid among the clubs linked to his future.

The contractual situation is the main factor that may affect the operation. McTominay is under contract with the Italian club until June 2028, but negotiations to extend it have not reached an agreement. The club aims to prevent the midfielder from approaching the end of his contract without resolving his future.

Scott McTominay, between renewal and a possible return to the Premier League

Tavolieri's information suggests that Napoli would consider proposals between €25 and €30 million. The player's agent would be in contact with several English teams, with preliminary discussions already held about a potential return to the Premier League.

Manchester United is familiar with the player, having been trained in their academy and transferred to Napoli in 2024 for around €30.5 million. Aston Villa also inquired about his situation last summer market. As of now, there has been no formal offer from either club.

The main obstacle to McTominay's continuity lies in the economic conditions of the new contract. Reports in Italy indicate differences between the player's entourage's demands and the club's proposal, although no announced agreement or definitive salary figure confirmed by both parties.

Real Madrid is also monitoring McTominay's situation

Real Madrid has emerged in discussions regarding the Scotsman's future. The Italian newspaper Il Mattino, quoted by sports media, states that the club would have sounded out his entourage due to uncertainty over the renewal. This interest adds to that of English teams but does not signify concluded negotiations or an official offer.

The connection with José Mourinho, current Real Madrid coach according to recent information, contributes a known precedent: the Portuguese coach gave McTominay his first minutes with Manchester United's first team. Nevertheless, this link doesn't confirm Real Madrid will make an offer for the midfielder.

Sportingly, McTominay arrived in Italy in 2024 and was elected the Serie A's best player in the 2024-2025 season when Napoli won the championship. The club paid €30.5 million for his signing; therefore, a sale around €30 million would recover a similar amount invested.

Napoli must decide before the contract progresses further

The next step will depend on whether the parties reach agreements for renewal and if clubs turn their observations into concrete proposals. McTominay's contract runs until June 2028, giving Napoli an opportunity in the summer of 2027 to negotiate a transfer before entering the final contract year.

Presently, the reference price is set between €25 and €30 million, but no transfer deal is in place. If the renewal remains stagnant, Scott McTominay could become an option for the Premier League or Real Madrid in the next summer transfer market.
