Scott McTominay to Tottenham: Major update emerges today
Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly preparing a surprise move for Napoli star Scott McTominay, who has been in outstanding form since departing Manchester United.
The Scottish midfielder joined Napoli in August 2024 and has quickly become a fan favourite in southern Italy. His impressive performances have drawn the attention of Spurs, who are eager to strengthen their midfield options.
However, prising McTominay away from Naples will be a major challenge. Napoli are unlikely to sanction his sale easily, though Tottenham’s financial power could play a part. According to the latest episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, the Serie A leaders remain firm in their stance and have no intention of losing such an influential player.
McTominay has become a key figure for Napoli, especially with Kevin De Bruyne currently sidelined through injury. Meanwhile, at Manchester United, little has changed regarding the futures of players like Kobbie Mainoo, whose limited playing time continues to hinder his hopes of making Thomas Tuchel’s plans for next summer.
Mainoo may well be watching McTominay and Rasmus Højlund thrive in Italy and wondering if a move abroad could revive his own career — but Ruben Amorim remains reluctant to let the 20-year-old leave as his dream of breaking into England’s national team drifts further away.
