According to TeamTalk, a source close to Scott McTominay revealed the player has a strong preference for the Premier League. The intention of Conte and Napoli's management is that McTominay is indispensable, with a notable project being developed at the Maradona.

Premier League clubs including Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, and Manchester United have contacted Scott McTominay's representatives regarding a potential transfer.
