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

When recently asked about a contract extension, Scott McTominay stated: "It's not important to talk about it right now. There haven't been any new negotiations recently. The most important thing right now is playing on the pitch, not signing a contract. I don't yet know if I'll extend my contract, or when that will happen." The ever-professional Scott McTominay has made his position clear, cutting through pleasantries and laying out the current situation: the last conversation took place several months ago, and since then, due to the World Cup, holidays, and a benign arrhythmia that will require surgical treatment in England or Scotland, the two sides have been unable to bridge their differences, as the gap between them is already substantial.

Scott McTominay joined the team in summer 2024, with a transfer fee of €30 million paid to Manchester United. He signed a four-year contract with progressive salary increases, with a maximum gross annual salary of €4.5 million. The player quickly established himself, scoring 12 goals in his first season, earning the season's MVP award and playing a decisive role in the team's championship victory. Both Napoli and Scott McTominay have made their positions clear: if the club wants to keep the midfielder, the Scot also expects a salary increase commensurate with his value. To remain with the team and extend his contract until 2030, his annual salary would need to reach €7 million, which is nearly double his current gross income. The club's financial commitment would be significant and substantially impact the balance sheet. Therefore, both sides are negotiating, trying to find a compromise that satisfies both parties and chart a future that brings mutual peace of mind.

Napoli recently extended Marioanucci's contract until 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 extended Rrahmani's contract until 2029; however, some other past contract extensions have also taken months of negotiations. Many such situations, some even painful, include the departures of Kvaratskhelia and Higuaín, as well as Ghoulam, who, to stay, asked for only a pen to sign with. McTominay's extension... is right here.
