According to Il Mattino, Napoli need to offer McTominay an annual salary of €7 million if they want to keep him.

Recently, McTominay commented on contract extension talks: "It's not important to discuss this now. There haven't been any recent talks. What matters most right now is performance on the pitch, not signing contracts. I don't yet know whether or when I will renew." McTominay, always straightforward, stated his position clearly, cutting through pleasantries and laying out the current situation: the last conversation took place months ago, and since then, due to the World Cup, holidays, injuries, and a benign arrhythmia that will be treated with surgery in England or Scotland, both parties have been unable to get closer, as the gap has become quite significant.

McTominay joined in summer 2024 for a €30 million transfer fee from Manchester United. He signed a four-year contract with performance bonuses, with an annual gross salary of up to €4.5 million. The player quickly established himself, scoring 12 goals in his first season, named the season's MVP, and playing a decisive role in the team's championship victory. Both Napoli and McTominay have made their positions clear: if the club wants to retain the midfielder, the Scottish player expects a salary increase commensurate with his value. To stay and extend his contract through 2030, his annual salary needs to reach €7 million, nearly double his current gross earnings. The financial investment for the club will be substantial and will significantly impact their financial balance sheet. Therefore, both parties are in discussions, trying to find a middle ground that satisfies them both and to outline prospects that bring mutual assurances.

Napoli recently extended Mazzocchi's contract through 2032, and decided to keep Di Lorenzo until the end of his career—he will be 37 in 2030—and at the end of last season, the club also renewed Rrahmani's contract through 2029; however, some previous contract extensions have also taken months of negotiation. There are many such situations, some even painful, including the sad departures of players like Kvaratskhelia and Higuaín, and Hamsik, who, to stay, only asked for a napkin to sign. McTominay's contract extension... is here.
