Scott McTominay is once again at the center of the European transfer market with former club Manchester United considering re-signing the Scottish international, according to media outfit Fichajes.
McTominay, who has become one of Napoli ‘s key players in recent seasons, could be involved in one of the most eye-catching moves of next summer.
His sustained performance in Serie A and the delicate economic situation of the Italian club fuel rumors about a possible multi-million dollar sale.
McTominay arrived at Napoli in 2024 for around €30 million from Manchester United . What seemed like a strategic move ended up being a resounding success.
In the 24/25 season, he was a key player in the Serie A title win, scoring 12 goals and providing 6 assists from midfield. His ability to get into the box, his imposing physique, and his tactical awareness made him a complete midfielder.
This season, despite Napoli’s inconsistent form, McTominay has already racked up 10 goals and 4 assists across all competitions. His numbers confirm that his performance wasn’t a one-off flash, but rather a steady climb through the ranks.
With a contract until 2028 and having turned 29, the Scot is at a key age. He is competitive, in peak physical condition, and maintains a high market value.
Napoli are seriously considering selling him to strengthen their financial structure. Furthermore, McTominay is among the highest earners on the team, a significant factor in the current context of financial adjustment.

The figure being discussed is around 80 million euros. This amount would almost triple the investment made just two seasons ago.
Manchester United has re-entered the picture. The English club, from which McTominay departed in search of a more prominent role, views his return as a strategic move.
At Old Trafford, they believe the midfielder has reached a level of competitive maturity he didn’t show in his first spell. He’s now a player with leadership, goals, and international experience.
The offer, close to €80 million, is enticing to Napoli, who see it as an opportunity to balance their books and reinvest. For United, it would mean bringing back a homegrown player, but in an improved version.
Summer is still a ways off, but the move is starting to take shape. If the figures hold and the player is willing, McTominay could return to Manchester as one of the biggest signings in the European transfer market
